Remember this classic scene from This is Spinal Tap when Nigel Tufts explains the necessity to have an 11 on their amps? Ten just isn't enough sometimes, you know?
Well, I feel similarly in regards to the traditional high-fives that we all share. We convey enthusiasm by slapping our hands together one or two hands at a time. What can we do if the moment warrants something even stronger than a "ten"? There are occasional moments when putting up two hands to celebrate just won't do. Like when this happened:
Here is the solution:
Give eleven. Please note that only guys can share in this act. (Females must continue to participate in events that can equate to no more that an enthusiastic "ten". Of equal importance, you will be arrested if you try to give a girl eleven in public - and you will be confused when your eleven turns into a ten-and-a-half.) After something truly great happens (e.g. you just scarfed down a giant burrito, you just took a hot shower), look sternly at your "partner" and say, "give me eleven". Trust me, it'll confirm the magnitude of the moment.
Go back to the YouTUbe clip now. That highlight could only have been improved had Boom Dizzle started banging out elevens with his teammates.
We miss you, Baron.
