Kenyan Orphans Re-enact Larry Bird's Famous Steal to Help Raise Money For Athletic Fields (Video)

Video Loading...

How awesome is this? The clip above is about a week old, but what does it matter? It shows a group of kids from Grace Care Orphanage in Kenya re-enacting Larry Bird's famous steal and assist to Dennis Johnson during Game 5 of the 1987 Eastern Conference Finals vs. the Pistons, complete with Johnny Most's commentary. During the summer, these same kids re-enacted Game 6 of the 1986 World Series. They're doing these classic games to help raise money to build athletic fields in the area. They need $56,000 and are currently at $7,400. The campaign ends on Jan. 10, 2013.
