Superman Wins Dunk Contest

I'm not sure what it was about last night's NBA Slam Dunk Contest, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. I was giggling and laughing the entire way through. Probably had something to do with the fact that I was a little slap-happy after a crazy day at work.

The winner was Dwight Howard, who pulled off this impressive, high-flying Super-Man Dunk. Not bad. However, in my opinion the highlight of the night was Minnesota Timberwolves guard Gerald Glass doing "The Birthday Cake" dunk (check out the link!) in which he positioned a cupcake on the edge of the rim, lit a candle on top, and proceded to blow out the candle as he was dunking. Totally hilarious. The judges didn't totally get it (they probably should have been allowed to see the dunk in slow-mo before voting) as it didn't get a very high score, but in my mind "The Birthday Cake" easily outranked "The Super-Man Dunk."

But that's just one man's opinion.
