What is the opening banter and Dan Lebertard’s softball swing stunt?
You are listening to the Dan Levatar Show in
partnership with the DraftKings Sports app, now
live in all fifty states.
So the skill of high school softball players. We were just talking about how incredible all of these girls are in comparison to the baseball side. And we found the video. Shout out to our video team. We found the video of Dan Lebertard trying to take swings against a high school softball pitcher. Let's show off Dan's level of athleticism here. So he's been swinging to fastballs and oh no, come on. Check his swing. And he played himself. Not only check to his swing, you had eight infielders in there, basically. You had everyone standing right near, knowing that he wouldn't even touch this pitch. Guys, it it's amazing.
We're burying the lead here. Yeah. Like, it's not that he checked the swing. It's not that they pulled all everyone in. It's the fact that Ten stumbles to the ground. He trips over his feet and falls down on the ground.
Yeah, to articulate this to the audio audience, Dan thinks he's gonna see a fastball. He loads up ready to go. And the moment that that pitch comes in with any level of spin, by the way, pitch right down the middle of the plate. So this pitch comes at him and he takes a load and then steps with the front foot, his back foot slips from under him, his front foot slips again, and he falls to the ground as dirt flies everywhere. He and by the way, not only it checks. Swing. He doesn't get to swing off. His hands barely move. His entire lower body gives out on him. So um I want to say shout out to that pitcher. Yeah. And shout out to Dan's horrendous level of athleticism. Yeah. You know what I think? What's that?
I think that deserves a toast. Oh yeah. Dan's athleticism deserves a toast and worth the toast is presented by Quervo. Yeah. Keep it fun. Keep it. Quervo. Dan's athleticism, something to behold every single time we see it.
This is just 100% Cuervo, by the way, that I've been chugging on all day. Makes sense with how the show has gone. Yeah. A little rickety, a little crooked, but always finds its way. Ah, Cuervo. All right, man. This is an interesting time in sports history because the marketing that happens at games. To get people to go to games is pushing all the boundaries. Oh, we had college night. Oh, I remember going and catching Hawks games for five bucks because it was college night. Oh, thank you, thank you. Uh we've had, oh, uh like senior citizens, like all these theme nights, right? But the Atlanta Hawks, Trista. Or having A single AF night?
I couldn't believe it. I texted Juju, who lives in Atlanta. Who's not single AF. He's actually booed up AF. He even had Her
birthday was recently.
Her birthday was recently. He dedicated uh the segment, the postgame segment to her, flowers to her. Um, but I said to him, I said, Did you see this? This is another we have to really give claps to the Atlanta Hawks marketing department as a whole because they just keep putting out banger after banger. And if it wasn't for that pesky kid, Luke Cornette. We would have gotten the magic city night as well.
Yes, we would have.
They have just been thinking creatively in ways that no other NBA team has, and now they're gonna have people coming to the arena. I believe it's gonna be in January against the Indiana Pacers and they're already pre selling tickets. Oh boy. Hey, it's IRL. Don't go on Bumble. Don't go on these other apps. See each other in real life. Evaluate each other in real life and see maybe if you can find the love your life in a Hawks game.
Is it is there a matching involved or just like humanity go?
I think it's like, hey, everyone who's at this game
You know.
Is single.
Yeah. I
when I was single AF, I was like, how do I let people know that I'm single AF? Is there like an icon on my Instagram? I don't really want people in real life to just assume it, you know?
I don't think you want that on your Instagram because then that invites things up. Invites so much people.
People were saying like, oh, put a pineapple there or put a whatever the pause, pause, pause. I don't know what the pineapple, why it needs a pause.
