The Kokomo BobKats - Death Nut Challenge

The Kokomo Bobkats have moved on to the Basketball League playoffs and will return to Memorial Gymnasium at 7:05 p.m. Thursday. We took this opportunity to play a little game of Truth of Burn with the Bobkats, thanks to our friends at Dr. Ashburns Pepper Emporium.

We asked a series of juicy questions the players might not want to answer in front of their coach -- but we gave them an easy out. If they didn't want to answer the question asked, all they had to do was eat one of the peanuts from the death nut challenge Nederland, provided by our friends at Dr. Ashburn's.

The results of this game? Seriously spicy. Tune in to find out what happened, and head out to Memorial on Thursday to see the Bobkats take on Owensboro Thoroughbreds.
