The 30 Most Fantabulous Sitter Misses Ever – In A Jukebox.

By: chris | May 19th, 2009

This started out as a simple video documenting a few decades worth of schadenfreude. It then evolved into something else entirely.

The first few rolled along nicely, watching sitter after sitter go unscored, and then the songs started to take over – mini snippets as though it was a game show or something. At which point it became a game: how many songs can you name out of the thirty?

I came in at 19. I’m not sure what that says about me other than I’m not quite game show material. And I reckon that’s a good thing. (No points for guessing the official artist of South Africa 2010.)

  man, these blokes would be great at crossbar challenge. (except for #12, i think he would screw that up too.) as for the songs, i hope i never get on a game show because i cant do stuff like that no matter how hard i try. its one of those useless skills i wish i had.

  It seems a lot of these players dont think walking the ball into the goal is a legitimate way of scoring. Its amazing how many good players are in this vid, giggs, kanu, steve stone, forlan. A lot of them were before my time.

  As a big TV fan I loved The Duel which was a trivia game show that aired on ABC for one week in December of 2007 and again for ten shows in the summer of 2008. The Duel game show was a head-to-head trivia game where contestants on the head-to-head trivia game show would answer rounds of trivia questions. Find out all about it at http://abcduel.com/
