There’s “March Madness,” and then there’s whatever led someone to come up with this idea. A group of men in Georgia now hold the Guinness World Record for the longest continuous basketball game. The 23-man group, ranging in age from 17 to 64, played a game in the Landmark Christian School in Fairburn for 121 hours and three minutes.
They were required to stay in the gym for the duration of the event, even while taking breaks. The group was made up of members of the Atlanta-based nonprofit Men Opposing Sex Trafficking and set the event up to raise money to help fight sex trafficking and support recovery programs for survivors. The final score? 13,096 to 12,972.
