Here’s some irony for you!!! As most NBA fans know by now, there was a funny story about JR Smith using the pickup line, #YouTryinToGetThePipe? as he was trying to holla at a woman. It became so popular that even t-shirts were made (see above photo). Well as a writer was trying to look up some info on the Knicks baller, he discovered something kind of hilarious. Crazy coincidence. Check it out…
JRSmith.com Is A Website For A Company That Lays Pipe
Via PostingandToasting:
At first I thought JRSmith.com was an elaborate hoax made by an enterprising, brilliant Knicks fan. It just seemed too good to be true. But in fact, it’s just strange, perfect coincidence: two men – preposterously carefree New York Knicks guard J.R. Smith and an Alabama manufacturer of plumbing products – connected by two things. Their names, and their passion for purveying pipe.
The story of J.R. Smith and pipe is well-known. But I didn’t stumble across this site looking for that.I just wanted to know what J.R. Smith’s numbers were when he won Eastern Conference Player of the Week earlier in the Knicks’ winning streak. So I googled, and was scrolling through the various results, and one hit in particular stood out to me.
It was a website called JRSmith.com, apparently for an Alabama business called, of all things, the Jay R. Smith Manufacturing Company. I was immediately taken aback by its description on google:
Manufactures commercial specification plumbing, environmental wastewater, rainwater collection and engineered drainage products.
Plumbing? Rainwater collection? Engineered drainage products? Couldn’t you describe those as…
wait for it…
PIPES?!?!?!?!
