R29 Shorts: Intern Wars Part 1 – The Slam Dunk Contest

Posted by in R29 Fun, R29 Shorts on August 6th, 2009

Looking through the R29 Film Vault™ provides us all here with fond memories of yore – many of which are never shared with the public. Looking through the archives, we came across a few pieces too good to let slip through the cracks:

What happens when you put intern v. intern in a mano-a-mano battle to determine who, for once and for all, can consider himself/herself the greatest intern of all time (relatively speaking, of course)?

We have whittled the hours and hours of footage down to its core highlights and present it to you, our loyal audience, as the epic Intern War™.

About a year ago, Craig and I had our duel at a table with funnel cakes and corndogs, and I… well, I got owned. Craig swiftly and impressively put me in my place when it came to intern eating abilities. Recently, Craig and Katrina threw down in metaphorical fisticuffs on our carpeted, miniature basketball court to see who would be the Slam Dunk King/Queen of the R29 office.

Now, keep in mind that our hoop is no stranger to magnificent displays of athleticism. But, could Katrina pull off an upset and beat Craig in this first of several Intern War™ challenges? Did Craig pull the hoop off the wall? Did Katrina go all NBA Jam style and catch ‘on fire’? Watch and see! And don’t forget to check out the next installment of Intern Wars™, coming soon!

More importantly, we are interested in hearing if any of you participated in some awesome office challenges? Do share.
