If you’ve played soccer a pk against a non goalie is pretty straightforward

I’d probably go free throw since I’ve been in that situation under high stress and know how my nerves would react.

Although my 85% might get reduced to 75% or so with that much pressure.

20 yard field goal off a tee. as long as you get some height under it, its hard to miss at 20 yards.

6. Get two chances to make one in the Dr. Pepper football can challenge thing.

I mean, they have to be looking for the absolutely worst people for these challenges, because this isn't that hard.

1. Sink a straight flat 4 foot putt

Been a while since I've played golf, but I feel pretty confident on this one.

7. Get a spare in bowling.

My luck, I'd end up with a 7/10 Split.

2. Make a free throw.

10 years ago this probably would have been my second choice.

4. Make contact with a belt high over the middle 80 mph fastball from a machine (no bunt).

I feel like 80 mph is alot faster than it seems, considering how fast MLB guys throw. But, I'd at least feel more comfortable doing this than trying to kick a field goal, serve in tennis, or kick a soccer ball.

Seth Curry would have a 7 percent chance of dying.

I’m taking the one the sorority girl hit 12 straight.

I'm going with either #3 or #4.

Regarding #3, please clarify. You mean that the ball is placed on the 10yd line, correct? Which would result in a 20yd FG.

80mph fastball (or as it would really be known as, a "straight ball") is not a problem to at least foul off.

The rule says “first serve”

The best players on the planet only make 60% of their first serves. If you barely hit it in the cartel is going to kill you for cheating


The easy pick is the 80 mph fastball from a machine

There is no stipulation regarding how hard you have to hit the ball.

Its the cartel. If you boink in a serve and try to claim it’s a first serve, they are going to hang you from a tree using your intestines as the rope

If we are using this logic, the psychopaths probably kill you anyway no matter what method you choose, and this light-hearted discussion is pointless.

Not really. It says “first serve” right in the rule for tennis. That means something for tennis terms. I am clearing up what that means for people.

If it was just “make a serve”, yes you pick that one all day

Also for the 4 foot putt people, PGA players make pct is 92%….
