The best and worst ideas can be formed out of something that just started off as a joke.
Somewhere in the middle of those options is The Blobfish Basketball Classic: a one-on-one basketball game between ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel and Texas senator Ted Cruz.
After comparing Cruz's appearance to that of a blobfish after Game 7 of the Western Conference finals between the Houston Rockets and Golden State Warriors, Kimmel was challenged by the senator to a game of hoops, according to ABC13. The two are playing for charities—Kimmel is playing for the Texas Children's Hospital and Cruz is playing for the early childhood education group Generation One—and the game will be shown on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
