NEW: UMass student wins $10,000 during a halftime competition only to be notified that the school's insurance partner wouldn't be paying him because his "foot was on the line."
Horrible marketing for this insurance company 😂
Senior Noah Lee needed to make a lay-up, free throw, three-pointer, and then a half-court shot to win $10,000.
After making the shots, Lee was notified one day later that the "insurance partner" who allegedly sponsored the challenge wouldn't be paying him the money.
"The half-court shot is disqualified because you were not behind the line," Lee was told.
Instead, they gave him a gift card and a "swag bag."
@JamesTheGr8r@hankgreen I don’t think RFK is the best person for the job either. But the problem is the best people for the job have spend 50 years doing it. Most the stuff RFK is pushing for isn’t controversial. So I can’t understand why the right people never fought for any of it
@carbonmfg @cougjazzfan Not judging other but judging situations seems like some crazy mental gymnastics.. maybe bigger than the people that aren’t wearing garments
@JamesSurowiecki I’ve lived in Sinaloa and Sonora. The cartels are the government. They are so intertwined that it is genuinely impossible separate them. The top of the food chain is as bought off as the bottom.
