Okay, so, the other day, I was trying to find the box score for that celebrity basketball game – you know, the one with all the actors and musicians playing? I couldn’t find it anywhere! It was driving me nuts.
I started by, like, obviously, Googling it. I typed in “celebrity game box score,” “celebrity basketball game stats,” all that stuff. Nothing. Just a bunch of articles about who played and some highlights, but no actual numbers.
Then, I went to some of the usual sports websites. I thought for sure one of them would have it, but nope. Still nothing. I was starting to think it was some kind of conspiracy, like they didn’t want us to know how many points everyone scored.
I even tried checking the social media accounts of some of the people who played. I figured maybe one of them would post a picture of the stats or something. I scrolled through a bunch of feeds, saw some cool pictures, but still no box score. Total fail.
I spent a decent chunk on all the sites, checking the usual sports news spots, diving into social media, and even trying some more specific search terms. I was hitting dead ends everywhere.
Finally, I decided to take on the event’s official website. It was a long shot, but I was desperate. I clicked around on there for a while, and eventually, buried deep in some sub-menu, I found it! A PDF file with the full box score. Success!
I was so relieved. It was such a simple thing, but it was bugging me so much that I couldn’t find it. I printed it out, because of course, and I even went through and added up some of the stats myself, just for fun. That search took way more energy and time than I ever imagined. It was surprisingly difficult!
Here’s how that looked after I finally did the job:
My Record
- Tried general web searches using a wide range of search terms.
- Checked major sports news outlet.
- Searched social media platforms of participants.
- Searched the official website of related events.
- I finally found it!
So yeah, that’s the story of how I spent way too long looking for a celebrity basketball game box score. Don’t you just love to dig into those tiny things that nobody else cares about?
