Punny Basketball Jokes Reward the 8th Grade Winners of HNOM's 2nd Annual Free-Throw Contest!
-
January 31, 2022As a small, E.L.A.-aligned treat after HNOM's 2nd Annual 8th Grade vs. Faculty Free-Throw Basketball Competition, 8th graders received bags of Cheez-It crackers and Oreo cookies with labels that featured punny Basketball jokes. In addition, for winning the game against their teachers in a 19 to 15 victory, the Class of 2022 also received a new Spalding basketball for outdoor recess and a new book for their classroom library: DIARY OF A WIMPY KID #16: BIG SHOT. Congratulations on the win, 8th grade!
The Cheez-It's punny connection to basketball included similar-sounding word play. "Swish" sounds like "Swiss"! She below for the joke!
The Oreo's punny connection to basketball included multiple-meaning word play. "Dunk" means to dip in milk or another condiment OR to do a "slam dunk" in basketball. See below for the joke!
