The Heist

North Carolina basketball fans are well aware of the Jordan 23 jersey that hangs from the rafters of the Dean Dome. But there was a time—February of 1998, to be exact—when it disappeared. In The Heist, Morris gets a former Duke student to recreate the theft and subsequent discovery of the sacred object. Having cased the joint, he and three accomplices figured out a way to snatch the jumbo jersey and escalate the traditional war of pranks between the Tar Heel and Blue Devil faithfuls. Their luck ran out, though, a few weeks later when the jersey was recovered just before they were to reveal it at Duke’s Cameron Indoor. Yes, it’s a tale told by a crazed sports nut, but it signifies the lengths to which college hoops fans will go to stick it to an archival.
