The Rockstar x Jordan Contest Winners Are…

A couple of weeks ago, we posted a contest giving away a limited edition Rockstar Games and Jordan Brand package (see the original contest here). In the box-set was a Jordan Classic 87 and a copy of Rockstar Games' recently-released Midnight Club: Los Angeles. After holding a contest to come up with the best name for the Jordan 24, we sifted through 317 entries and picked two winners.
DRUM ROLL The two winners who we felt came up with the most innovative names were…
Winner #1: xxcoreyxx, who offered this:
Air Jordan Sistine
The name is derived from Leonardo Di Vinci's famous painting that was ultimately left unfinished but is still considered one of his greatest works. Like Jordans I-XX3 legacy, many people thought the XX3 should be the last shoe to correspond with his famous number but other Jordan fans still see the Jordan endowment as unfinished and should continue. Parallel to Di Vinci's work, Jordans legacy is still incomplete but still revered as unpresidented and the greatest of all basketball footwear and shoe technology much like Di Vinci's work was to the Renaissance and modern day.
and:
Winner #2: Big Rob, who offered this:
Air Jordan Epiphany
The term is used in either a philosophical or literal sense to signify that the claimant has “found the last piece of the puzzle and now sees the whole picture”
I think this would be a well suited name for the XXIV (If there will be one :D)
CONGRATS!

Is just SAD that the winner of the contest was so WRONG, and ever sadder the judges shows the little culture they have… Leonardo Da Vinci never, NEVER painted on the Sistine Chapel. It was another genius instead: MICHAELANGELO BUONAROTTI, anyway, xxcoreyxx has his speech ready and nobody took a moment to think about it and now he has a fresh pair of Jordan when what he should have is a book about Renaissance and its artists.
