Lorenzo Charles and Jim Valvano
April 4, 1983 – Albuquerque. Jim Valvano, the coach of N.C. State, and star player Lorenzo Charles, are paraded around as they commend each other on a shocking and unexpected beating of Houston. The NCAA Championship game ended in a completely game-changing manner when Charles managed to lead his team into victory. Valvano was humorously adorned with his side’s basketball net. Charles was also handed a record number of high-fives by his teammates lining up to congratulate him.
Kyle Whitaker
March 17, 2005 – Dodge National Circuit Finals Rodeo. The only part of Kyle Whitaker that managed to hang on to this bucking horse called Dump Wagon was his boot. The Nebraskan rodeo star would plunge head-first into the sand at Pocatello, Idaho’s Circuit Finals Rodeo. We wouldn’t blame you for finding this accident humorous, but Whitaker certainly wasn’t laughing as he came third-last out of 24 other bronco riders. The rest of the cowboys in the photo’s background watch on blankly.
