The Avenger Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 It's really up to the insurance company who underwrote the insurance Kroger had out on the thing - if the insurance decides not to pay then Kroger has to pony up the full $10K or get the bad PR - bad spot to be in.....
Just Jack Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Video Kroger won't pay Kroger won't pay? The article I saw said they decided to pay just a couple hours after the game was finished. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaab-the-dagger/protest-helps-half-court-shot-contest-winner-claim-153247431.html

My ex ran a basketball tourney for charity one time; it was a lot of fun and some really good teams showed up. They did a half court contest for $10k too....guy just missed, in and out. Afterwards she realized the paperwork never made it to the insurance company. Oops....would have been a big problem if the guy had drained the shot.
Gordio Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 His foot was clearly over the half court line when he released the shot. When I was in high school for our basketball games when students came into the game they would have a box to leave your student ids. They would pick 3 ids out at halftime for halfcourt shots. The prizes I think were $500, TV, Camcorder & if you made it you would get to pick one. They would always tell you before you shot if your foot goes over the line your disqualified.
