 MISSOURI (Top40 Charts) - Yesterday in Missouri, Nelly and his St. Lunatics agreed to play basketball with the students of a U.S. High School if they improve their school record. The group made the announcement while in Jefferson City, where they were being honoured by Governor Bob Holden for their good deeds. As incentive to the students of Jefferson City High School, Nelly and his crew said they'd go back there to play a charity b-ball game or perform a show if the school's dropout rate decreased or if standardized test results got better. "We do it because of our experiences--seeing large percentages of the classes we entered [in] freshman year, not being there to graduate," said Nelly in an interview with the Jefferson City News Tribune.
