On Saturday Jimmy will fly to Texas to play Senator Ted Cruz in a game of basketball one-on-one. The reason this is happening is because after Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals, Jimmy likened Senator Cruz to a blobfish and he did not like that so he challenged Jimmy to a game of one-on-one. Jimmy accepted and now it’s going to happen this Saturday, June 16th in Houston at Texas Southern University. Rest assured, no punches will be pulled when Jimmy enters that basketball ring Saturday and we are pulling out all the stops to promote this! #KimmelvsCruz #BlobfishBasketballClassic #Cruzin4aLosin
If you live in or near Houston and want to be there live go to http://www.kimmelvscruz.com for free tickets.
The loser of the game will make a donation to the winner’s charity of choice.
