What If Bobby Plump Was A Little Off

Nicknickers


$2,500.00

This piece asks the question, "what if Bobby Plump was a little off?" We wouldn't even be talking about him today even though he was a good basketball player, what makes him famous is "the last shot." The shot that won it all for a small school from Milan, Indiana  in 1954.  For the shot that made movies. The shot that made people remember. This piece displayed a little bit slanted with the basketball net suspended up in the air as if to remind us or to resemble a swish of the basket and an old wood frame with the name Bobby Plump etched in history. Big white lettering significant for so many reasons, bobby plump is a living legend in Indiana but the question we're raising with this piece is very important. Just like everything else in BROKEN RIMS AND DIRTY DREAMS. This is a question about life. What if Bobby Plump was a little off? Nicknickers. Ironic. Idiotic. Iconic. You will never be the same.

For everybody that gets the irony, That likes puns and has fun, pokes and prods, jokes and confident nods. Winks and grins, loses and wins. Takes and gives. Twice as hard. Taking a swing to knock it out the yard. Make believes and believes what they made. Valedictorians or barely passed 8th grade. Haute moms and say hi kids. Daddy's little girl, keep on rocking in the free world. Because these times they are a changing. Ironic. Idiotic. Iconic. Nicknickers. You will never be the same.
