One fan had a chance to win $1 million and ended up shooting the worst half-court shot in history

Shooting a half-court shot in front of thousands of screaming fans is a pressure filled moment. To add to the pressure, the person shooting a half-court shot has a chance to win big whether it’s money or a car. There’s also the chance the shooter could miss horribly and forever be tied to the embarrassing moment.

For one unlucky fan at the ACC Tournament it ended up being the latter of the two possibilities.

During the game between Duke and Notre Dame, one fan had a chance to win $1 million if he could sink a half-court shot.

47 feet would determine the fate of the brave shot-taker.

Would he make and it become the hero, or would he miss and become the joke of many?

His shot ended up going about 4.7 feet and didn’t end up anywhere close to the 47 feet from the half-court line to the hoop.

It was quite possibly the worst half-court shot in the history of half-court shots. The shot was so bad that fans began booing after the horrible miss.

The moral of the story is that if a fan is going to sign up for the half-court shot, at least come within the vicinity of the hoop or expect a chorus of boos to follow.
