"People are bidding on a 'bag of air' from Kobe Bryant's last game"

Some people are stupid. And I don't mean "hit reply all on that joke about your boss to the entire office" stupid. I mean genuinely, "what could you possibly be thinking" stupid. As such, people will try and profit off of said stupidity, and often times, these situations involve sports. Such is the case with this:

That's right, someone is selling a bag of air from Kobe Bryant's last game.

A bag. Of air.

As if you're going to be able to verify that. Or that someone would actually be impressed by a bag of air sitting on a display. Or that you're not going to accidentally puncture that bag when you move and then it just escapes and joins the rest of the air or slowly leaks out over time. Or as if it wasn't a bag. Of air.

There is no way to doubt that. This is a ziplock bag but i'm supposed to buy what's in there?

I suppose when we buy Air Jordans, we're buying the air in the shoe, too!


BTW: i get the pun.
