Summary

BOO! Happy Halloween from us at Oddball. On this spooky day, Amin and Charlotte had to explore one of the NBA's most mysterious myths: the haunted Skirvin Hotel. First, they recap their appearance on Pablo Torre Finds Out, where they discuss the legend of the hotel. Then, Amin and Charlotte interview NBA athletes and personalities like Paul Pierce, Kristen Ledlow, and Danny Green to hear their first-hand experiences at the Skirvin. To top it off, Amin, Charlotte, and our producers tested these stories by staying at the hotel themselves, and luckily, they made it out alive. Learn more about your ad choices.
