Who would've guessed that when the And1 Mix Tape Street Balla's came to Columbia for an exhibition showdown with a team of former Mizzou ballers (most of which probably came from the Quin Snyder era), the game would end in a brawl, police would be called in, and numerous players would end up in jail?
Well, I, for one, certainly would've guessed it. And I doubt I was the only one.
The details are sketchy at this point, but the boys Sik Wit It, The Professor, Half Man Half Amazing, High Octane, Shane the Dribbling Machine, Main Event, and others squared off with (as of now) unknown former Tigers and things got nasty.
The only details I have at this point are from a radio report on KFRU that interviewed a local police officer who said, "there was a fight that started on the field, then carried over into the stands. Both benches cleared and everybody was fighting. We finally got things under control and evacuated the field, but then fights broke out outside the gym in the outdoor area."
The field? I was confused if he meant "the court" or if he was referring to an And1 player's name.
The game was played at a local high school, Rock Bridge High. A great example was set for our local high school athletes. But, what can you do? These are professionals and they'll dribble you to death if you don't like it. If, and when, I find out more I'll be sure to let you know. It should be interesting to see who the former MU players were that were involved with this. Any guesses?

An anonymous source has told me that the And1 team was playing the Columbia All-Stars. He said that he's pretty sure Anthony Peeler was one of the All-Stars, but that is yet to be confirmed. More info when I get it.
Randy Pulley at the point? With Arthur Johnson putting on a free throw clinic.
Steve Stipanovich at Center and Rickey Frazier at Power Forward.
now we're starting to piece things together. perhaps the fight had nothing to do with the And1 boys, maybe it was just Ricky Clemens and Clarence Gilbert fighting over who gets to take the most shots.
Or perhaps it was Josh Kroenke and Spencer Laurie arguing over who was the biggest momma's boy.
Don Imus called Half Man Half Amazing a "nappy-headed bro," which sparked the self-proclaimed "rape victim" from the Duke lacrosse case and Vivian Stringer, who were in attendance, to rush the court with Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the resurrected Jackie Robinson. Eventually the four police officers from the Rodney King case came in from L.A. and started pounding Sik Wit It for no apparent reason. I know this because I got it on tape. At this point, I'm still reviewing the film to see if Andrais Thornton was involved.
Jason Sutherland was involved (surprise) as was Marcus Watkins.
