In anticipation of the release of the movie ’21 Jump Street’, a contemporary re-invention of the classic 80s TV series that introduced the world to Richard Grieco (and Johnny Depp), Complex and Sony Pictures are hosting a contest on Venice Beach sure to be fun for basketball fans like yourselves.
In the new film, Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill are undercover cops sent back to high school; so to foster the gym class vibe, we’re bringing you the “21 Jump Shot Challenge,” where participants will fire off up to 21 of their best jumpers. All participants will receive a custom event t-shirt,
The event is open to anyone who wants to test their jump shot. Any participant that makes 21 consecutive shots or has the highest score wins a limited edition 21 Jump Shot Challenge basketball and chance to be seen on the Complex.com website. (And likely here on The Hoop Doctors).
The event takes place on February 25th, 2012 from 1pm–3pm at the Blue Basketball Court located at Ocean Front Walk and 17th Street in Venice. If you can’t make it down to the boardwalk, you can tweet a vid of your best jumper to @21JumpStMovie. 21 Jump Street hits theaters on March 16th—check out more at http://www.21jumpstreet-movie.com.
