Don't know how Basketbawful and I BOTH missed this little beauty from the timeout at the end of regulation in Game 4. Thanks to a couple of anonymous commenters for bringing it to our attention. There's nothing quite like making a fool of yourself in the background of a broadcast, only to then make a COMPLETE AND UTTER fool of yourself...This brought me such joy.

My favorite part is that after the dude helps her up, the woman is still smiling like she's not completely embarrassed, but she, and even her mortified friend (who pretends to be oblivious to the fall - nice friend you are, lady), choose to stand with their faces out of the shot for the remainder of the piece. Perhaps another funny vid would be what they're doing in the background during the text timeout - politely sipping their diet sodas as they watch their team go down in flames, perhaps?

Sidebar 1: If this were two dudes, we all know the one who DIDN'T fall would be pointing and laughing his ass off.

Sidebar 2: Where do all these people manage to get non-basketball items of clothing in that horrible Orlando Magic blue? Is there a "blouses-in-your-team's-ugly-color" Website or something?
