This weird thing keeps happening during the men’s NCAA tournament where a player will put up a pretty normal looking shot only for the ball to get stuck between the rim and the backboard.
The common term for this rare event is known as a “wedgie” – as in the ball is wedged between the iron and the glass and has nothing to do with the ball’s underpants lifted up over its head. Though the level of embarrassment has got to be about the same.
