The Riffer's Cup

There’s nothing in the rule book that says that if you build it, Clubber Lang can’t strike out The Whammer as a walk-on at Notre Dame! Wait, there is? That seems oddly specific… Hmm, it also says “It’s illegal for The Tasmanian Devil to end the Cold War by boxing Bagger Vance.” Who wrote this thing??

All these rules and many more will be broken in The Riffer’s Cup! Mike, Kevin, and Bill riffed moments from some of your favorite and not-so-favorite sports movies. We’ve got apes turning double plays, dogs hitting free throws, and Noltes throwing chairs. The whole experience is as chaotic as attending a Philadelphia Eagles game, except you’re less likely to get hit in the head with a D battery while a drunken fan eats horse poop. 

Oscar winners abound: Pacino, Bullock, and the robot Paulie got for his birthday in Rocky IV (he won Best Original Score for CODA; don’t look this up). You’ll also get to see athletes such as Michael Jordan and Shaq flex their acting chops, and then you can ponder why neither of them has starred in a movie for over two decades!

During replay review, Mike, Kevin, and Bill pick up their telestrators and provide host segments between the action. With clips from over a dozen movies, The Riffer’s Cup is guaranteed to posterize your funny bone! Because as Rocky said, “If I can change, and you can change, Ah-OOH-gah, check out Lola Bunny!”
