One of my nicknames is truth teller. Because if you don't tell the truth, if you don't say that the way it is, they won't listen to you.

Is that the one with the free throws? They miss free throws, you get the chicken. Brickin' for chicken. Brickin' for chicken. Wow. You know, one time we actually was looking at the Jumbotron, we were trying to get our phones to get the scanner to get the same discount too.

You want to hear a story? We come in, and this had to be 2022 or 2021, one of those years. We come in third unit, third string. We come in, you know, trying to finish the game. You know, it's not the best. You know, sometimes it's sloppy. Sometimes it's okay. You know, it's not the best time to be in, but I'll take it. You know, I'm blessed. I'll take whatever I can get.

So I'm shooting the free throws, and I missed the first one, and everybody's going ballistic. And I'm like, what? I look around. I'm like, why is everybody so hyped?

And then, you know, I hit the second free throw. I hear this, oh, deflation.

And then I was like, why is everybody, what did I do? Why is everybody, was everybody like booing and yelling? He's like, no, it was free food. That's why.

No, a part of me would have said, make both and I'll buy you guys dinner. I'm not missing a free throws, man. Dinner's on me. It's okay. You know, I gotta make my free throws.

So I'll tell you this. They usually free throws, those free throws come in the clutch. In the clutch, he makes them. Like he's never, he doesn't miss in the clutch. Maybe in the beginning, they don't have that offer in the beginning in the game. So I don't know specifically, but I would assume these are definitely giving out like food. This is the funny thing, okay?

So what do you mean? So he gave eight of them, he gave chickens, chicken, bacon chicken to people. Oh, he's a philanthropist. That's good. That's amazing, man. Who doesn't love a free chicken?

of free chicken. Wow. That's good. I'm going to tell him that. I'm going to tell him that. But, you know, I'm afraid if I tell him, he's going to not miss now. He's going to think about it and not give no more free chicken. So I'm not going to say anything. I'm just going to let it rock. I'm just going to let it rock.

It's just crazy.

Maybe I should just miss the second one. No, I don't think so. He's just like me. No, he's not missing anyone. I'm not going to lie to you. He's just like me. I don't think he thinks that. He's so zeroed in. And when I say zeroed, he's so laser-focused that he's thinking, like, I'm going to make two free throws and it is what it is. I'm going to do my best in my ability to make them.

They're what they want the most. They want chicken. That's what they want.

That people want chicken and we got to give the people what they want. That's how you build your legend. That's how you become this phenom. Just give people what they want.
