If any of our readers are Reality TV junkies you may already be aware of this, but a few weeks ago Kobe Bryant made a special appearance on the game show Deal or No Deal to present an enticing offer to the contestant Davon Clark. The offer was a set of tickets to a Lakers home game, autographed hyperdunk shoes, a trip to Hawaii to watch the Lakers training camp next year, and a promise to hang out with Kobe himself after one of the exhibition games. All Davon had to do was accept the $388,000 deal.
For the first time while watching this game show Deal or No Deal I wasn’t frustrated. Davon Clark used his common sense and took the deal instead of risking it all. As the following video shows, Mr. Clark would have ultimately ended up with a mere $1000 and no Lakers package if he hadn’t of accepted the deal when he did. Good Job Davon! I gotta say, i’m impressed with Kobe for agreeing to take part in this package and game show. The Kobe Bryant 5 years ago probably would have refused as he was less willing to put himself out there away from the game.
