20. Funny story from high school: The day before high school graduation, the school team (new high school) had a concluding workout at the Drive In Hall, right after the school day. Danny arrived at the school in the morning and put his bag in the storage place for the sports bags, like all the other basketball players in the school. At the end of the school day Danny took the only bag with the number 8 left in the storage place and went to practice. Small and ball size 5. That is, another child got confused and took Danny’s bag and Danny took the other child’s bag. This created a situation where Danny did not have training clothes and basketball shoes, and he had to do the concluding training with school clothes, Air shoes. Force and walk so as not to get injured.
