The bag of stadium air from Kobe's last game that nearly sold for $15k

- I don't understand sports memorabilia collecting. We all are fans of different things, so the value is all over the place and feels like an extremely questionable investment. I know some people collect just because they like the stuff - but for the person who tried to spend $15,000 on a bag of air there's no way they saw that as anything other than an investment they could flip later. Or they just had too much wine and stumbled around eBay for a while (looking at you, mom).
After Kobe Bryant's final NBA game, someone posted a Ziploc bag to eBay that allegedly contained air from Staples Center. That's all. Nothing more. Not like Kobe farted into the bag or graced it with his lips to blow a breath into the super trusty and unlikely to be punctured container. It was just air, from a stadium, full of rowdy fans watching a dude play a game for the last time.
And yet, it took off. Why? How? Who? Won't someone think of the children?

![DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO - Fused Warriors Trailer [BUDOKAI TENKAICHI Series]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/84p4Lvyfyes/mqdefault.jpg)
Soooo we're trying something new. This is a spin-off of Weird Rules with the hope of being able to just talk about whatever weird stories we want to. We...we just want to get weird for you.
Cool, love listening to all three of you talking together
I love all your content. Keep it up!
This was fun, I subscribed based on the humour of this vid
The guy who jumped in the box with domi was weird, and has a weird finale to it as well
Please keep it these three dudes on this show, they have great chemistry and they are all knowledgeable af about sportsball.
Those bags of air sadly just gained a lot of worth :(
Tim M. Those bags don’t have a price tag anymore ya mane 😢
👀
Those bags of ari probably empty now
It’s really not that sad people die every day
@@ryanmcwilliams8784 doesn’t make it not sad to people😂 goofy
So that’s where Belle Delphine got her inspiration from

That broad wouldn't even know a basketball game if one smacked her in the face.
@@persephone2706 just a wild guess. But I’m guessing she does.
Shaq has a burger in his restaurant called the Kobe burger with kobe beef named after Kobe with whom he famously had beef
Can't forget the kobe cheese 😋
The beef isnt named after kobe. That beef has benn named kobe before kobe was even born.
@@mini-nw1xl thats the joke dumbass
All I’m getting from this is Shaq has a restaurant. Does he sell exotic meats or extraterrestrial meats?
the recipe now has the offical thing!!!
I do give the guy props for starting out small at 99 cents.
yeah, I'm surprised it got pulled. Wasn't like dude was trying to scam people...
R.I.P. Kobe Bryant
1978-2020
The Jazz could’ve made the playoffs as an 8th seed had they won but I think since the Rockets won earlier in the day the Jazz were officially eliminated.
Yup, spot on. Houston had the tie breaker over them
pls rockets have better conference record and also they played at home vs kings.
I remember Kobe telling Trevor Ariza, who was then playing for the Rockets, that they're going to make the playoffs.
Exactly! As a Jazz fan I was pretty insulted when they said the Jazz were a bad team heading into that game
1997 Mtw well an 8 seed team is worse than half the conference
That bag of air is probably worth even more than $15,000 now
Air Jordan ❌
Air Kobe ✔
Edit: R.I.P to a legend 💛💜
Mitch Lehner the most underrated comment on RUclips
The WORST comment u saying Kobe better than goat
Lucas Chng No, it’s clearly a joke, dumbass.
Lucas Chng you’re a disappointment
TEAM CLASSIC SONIC it’s an inappropriate joke

if you can afford to pay 15k to buy a bag of air from the game, you can afford tickets to the actual game and just go instead
Darshil Shah they went to the game and forgot to bring their ziplock bags 🤷🏼♂️
Bekfast Danny I always be forgetting my bag😤
If you're super rich, you might not have time to fly to the game to attend.
@@Benkenobi8118 you hire someone else to get you the air
I would want my bag of kobe air vacuum-sealed to maintain its freshness
Selling that bag of air was like Mr.Krabs charging his customers 1$ dollar per minute for breathing!!!
lmaoo it was his employees too. even worse
Will, Ryan, and Seth in the same room 😲
Let's get weird boyz
How do I like a comment twice?
Jo Thompson I gotchu bro
I love how y’all have so many series’ but y’all don’t neglect any of them! This is why SB Nation is the best sports channel.
“We respect this guy so much that we murdered his namesake”
To be fair, it was a goofy nickname and Kobe actually gave it to himself. One of the cringier moments in NBA history. Guys don't give themselves nicknames and if they do, it's usually a joke (Shaq as "The Big Aristotle"). Kobe seriously invented his own nickname and it sounded something like a goofy kids cartoon villain.
Can you please do a rewinder on the 2014 world cup match between Germany and Brazil
Or it could be ‘The Worst Brazil game’
That would be terrible. How wpuld you even go about making a rewinder on a 7-2 blowout.
Andrew Buonaccorsi 7-1 actually xD
you didn;t see highlights? nothing to see
I swear nobody even watched soccer at that time and everybody was still clowning Brazil the next day at school
Thats a pre-covid air, prolly cost a million today
"Hey, guys. I got this story we can riff on. Let's go make a video."
"Should we maybe put away the CLEANING SUPPLIES and STEP LADDER?"
"Nah. HIT RECORD! LET'S DO THIS!"
After he died this would be worth way more
Now the prices should skyrocket
0:40 the jazz were actually fighting for the 8th seed that night and were eliminated either right before the game or in the middle of it. So that's not exactly fair.
0:40 the Jazz were literally 1 game out of the playoffs lol
But the Rockets won so it didn't matter
actually, it's a bit inaccurate to say nobody was playing for anything because the Utah jazz had to win and they needed the Houston Rockets to lose in order for them to get the 8th seed in the playoffs.
Houston won during Utas's game (I believe Midway through the 4th quarter) THEN the game became meaningless...
I really liked this concept and would love to see more videos like this. You guys always make dope stuff.
Is this a new continuing series? I love it! I could watch you guys banter for hours, even without interesting things to talk about.
Who's watching this after hearing the news about his passing
"Michael Phelps comes to mind because he's famously good at breathing"
Excellent insight 👍
This was fantastic, I’m glad you’re going to make this a regular thing. As someone else in the comments mentioned, you guys really should have a podcast
I too love Laura Dern. Such an underrated actress.
I think this series would make a great podcast if it were more long form. You all have great chemistry.
I don’t usually like to pick at the videos, but the Jazz were actually playing for the 8th seed that night. Not sure what tiebreaker with Rockets was, but Jazz came into that game playing for the playoffs
Rockets locked up the 8 seed minutes before the game
@@jajabinks4733 Jazz players learned that only at halftime
a big no. the jazz learned that they're on a lottery team as rockets won in a blowout.
R.I.P Kobe Bryant .
$15,000?!
It’s high quality air.
Naaww
1 million now
7:33 That actually explains a lot.
Greg T wat
Do more of these you guys are killing it keep it up
No playoff spots at stake?
The Jazz were in 8th, they lost and the Rockets made it in the playoffs, and Jazz did not.
Goran Vlacic the Jazz would already out of contention of the 8th spot when the game started
@@Ant-ye8ic Houston played that night and got to a 41-41 record, Utah lost and ended 40-42.
@@Ant-ye8ic if houston lost and utah won, utah go through in 8th. That's playoff contention no?
Goran Vlacic they woulda had the same record if Utah won but Rockets had the tie breaker advantage either way.
@@ceerez1002 if houston lost and utah won their records reverse.
Love Seth, Ryan and Will. Definitely need more of these!!!
R.I.P Kobe Bryant
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😩
rip kobe 😔
RIP Kobe 😢
I read the title "Someone tried to pay $15,000 for a bag of hair from Kobe Bryant"
100% someone would pay for that

Thank you for giving me the answers to the best pub quiz that never was!
I have a fantastic suggestion for a video, I just don't know what series it really belongs in:
The Chaparral 2J "Fan Car".
The FIA rules didn't have a limit on the number of engines a car could have, or what those engines powered.
In the late 60s, teams were finally keying into the importance of
down-force, with goofy, dated wings appearing above the cars. Legend Jim
Hall realized (possibly from a drawing sent to him from a young boy)
that no regulations prevented his team from mounting a second petrol
engine in the car, which would drive 2 massive fans that would literally
suck the car to the ground. To create the seal required for suction,
they also designed movable side skirting which would later be revisited
as the cornerstone of the 'Ground Effect Era' in the next decade.
As a downside, it sucked up anything not bolted to the circuit, and could barely complete a competitive practice lap.
When it did run, it won, BIG TIME. It was clear as day that if the
reliability was sorted, there was no other car that could remotely
compete.
Predictably, with pressure from McLaren, the rules were amended at the
end of the season to specifically prevent this brash chicanery and the
2J was banned from the sport.
That just screams SB Nation. Did I mention it was an American team?
The Fan Car concept would make a return later in the decade with
BrabhamF1 running a fan concept that they eventually abandoned, while
under the direction of rules breaker turned rules maker, Bernie
Ecclestone! The stories of the Fan Car concepts are full of cowboy
innovators, rule breakers, go-hard millionaires and brass balled drivers
in one of motor racing's deadliest periods.
With the f1 rule changes coming into effect in 2021, sporting a marked
move away from Wings and Spoiler force and towards ultra low pressure
'Ground Effect', it would be a pretty timely video with plenty of
opportunity to talk about the 2J's lasting legacy on the sport of motor
racing!
@t
love hanging with my favorite sports boys Seth, Willy and R-money talking about sports goofs
“No one had a playoff spot in mind” Uhh what the Jazz where 1 game away from 8 seed
RIP Kobe
RIP Kobe Bryant hardest worker in NBA History
Belle Delphine : WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN
This is a weird coincidence... Fitting that it's on a That's Weird video. I was thinking about the boxing / con job movie "Diggstown" this morning. I could remember most of the principal cast: James Woods, Lou Gossett Jr, Heather Graham, Oliver Platt, but I couldn't remember the actor who played the millionaire bad guy. I was trying to jog my memory, thinking "he has a daughter who's an actress" and "it's Bruce... something." I see your T-shirt & "Click!" Bruce Dern! Laura Dern's father! Thank you, Will! That's been bugging me all day.
RIP Kobe!
The Jazz were fighting for a playoff spot in 2016. With the loss to the Lakers in that game, they finished 40-42. The Rockets grabbed the 8th seed with a record of 41-41. The game was definitely worth something to the Jazz.
You know that guy could’ve never even been at Kobe’s last game in the first place, just filled up a bag of air in his living room that night and then wrote on it “Bag of air from Kobe’s last game”
🤔
yeah, for 99 cents, who knows what you are gonna get.
RIP kobe bryant
I appreciate the budget that went towards the set.
💛RIP Kobe💜
RIP KOBE
Whos watching this after the news of Koby and GiGi death.😭RIP GiGi and Koby
It’s Kobe
Rest in peace, Kobe Bryant （1978-2020）
I like the new series’ even though I know they’re just meant to distract us from Jon Bois not being around
At the Sydney Olympic Pool their is a display with vials of the pool water after world records and such. So bang on the money.
I need the story behind the Laura dern shirt.
Have you done the aero dynamics for josh Beckett or randy Johnson your baseball videos
Who's watching this after Kobe died❤
The jazz if won would’ve been the 8th seed in the west with a tied record over the rockets
I think the bag would be worth $15,000 now :/
RIP KOBE💛💜
They’re probably more expensive now
I'm just disappointed that the tags you mentioned in the video aren't in the description.
Isn't ringing any Belles
should make this a podcast I think it would work better snd I would totally listen to it
The Jazz were fighting to get the 8th seed... They were trying to finish .500...they needed to win and they needed someone else to lose.... This was the same season the warriors won 73 games.... Those two games actually aired concurrently... I remember there being a poll somewhere asking which game people were gonna watch... And a ridiculous majority of course said Kobe's last game
This video hits so much harder now
My boy O'Hare making bank even after the Lorax
The Jazz were solid. They were 1 game away from the playoffs and had an all star in Gordon Hayward. I’m not saying they were playing all nba defense on Kobe but they weren’t some trash team.
That last game was a Kobe Bryant wet dream. The guy jacked up awful shots all game long and not only did no one say anything negative about it, they all knew it was coming and they cheered the entire time.
love this idea can wait for more
The Laura Dern shirt is everything
I know Laura Dern is amazing, but is there any other reason for the shirt?
The bit about the Gamer girl bath water is the funniest non-Jon-Bois-project you've ever put out omg
Didnt think 3 adult men talking about vaping Michael Phelp's pool water was a discussion I would ever hear in my life, what a video
Idk about it being a totally non-competitive game, the jazz where in a tie/1 game out from making the playoffs, they got eliminated during that game when a different team won
The Jazz were competing for a playoff spot that season
Wow. My three favorite secret base hosts all in one video. Good times.
Rest In Peace Kobe Bryant 🐍
Rewinder on WEC 53: Anthony Pettis vs. Benson Henderson please, aka The Showtime Kick!
Can you do a rewind on Nate Diaz Beating mcgregor or when mcgregor beat Diaz
RIP KOBE BEAN BRAYNT !! Shame these guys hated on him scoring 60 pts ….typical. This channel needs to pin RIP 🪦 AT LEAST. Have some respect ✊🏾
Ya lost me at "How would ya ship a bag" lol
Well, ya put it in a bigger bag lolol
I wanna see more of these
Actually the Utah Jazz were the 9th seed and if they won they probably would have been in the playoffs. So they so this game wasn’t meaningless for either team.
Rockets locked up the 8 seed minutes before the game
@@jajabinks4733 So back to meaningless.
Hey I know that this isn’t related to this type of video but for a future rewinder episode (haha ironic), you should do Philip Humbers perfect game. Interesting back story on how he was a subpar journeyman around the majors and minors and how he gave birth to a child 9 days after the perfect game and then pretty much fell off of the face of the Earth haha. Please consider it!
What happened to the 2007 Patriots in NFL like all players on the roster where do they go after being 16-0
Brady stays.
Harrison goes to NBC.
Moss went to ESPN.
Junior Seau...
Yeah I don't want to play any more.
That Laura Dern shirt is amazing
so uh, one concern I have is that zip-lock is not fully air tight. like sure you can blow it up like a balloon but you do that and leave it for a day its not going to be the same air in there even IF it hasen't partially deflated.
if you squeeze on them it even becomes noticeable that there are small hole (even if presumably forced wider by squeesing)
Funny you guys talk about farewell tours. I also remember Kareem's farewell season.
Also, this line from Forget Paris:
Mickey: You're out of here, Jabbar!
Kareem: Are you nuts? This is my farewell game!
Mickey: Well then, let me be the first to say 'farewell'!
i think utah was fighting for a playoff spot (last spot) that night
CORRECT!
Yeah, Houston made it in with a 41-41 record while Utah missed the playoffs with a 40-42 record after losing their final game to the Lakers.
They were already eliminated minutes before the game started
@@jajabinks4733 idk if thats true, but who cares, your just gonna get smacked by the 1st seed
So how much do the bags sell for now
Do to recent events they gotta be more expensive
Where has dork town been!!!
Rip Kobe❤️
I remember this from back in 2016
