Finkle Foods, a snack company, is holding a contest, with the grand prize being a trip to New York City to take a could shot at the first National Basketball Association final game that, if made, would give the winner a million dollars.
No one needed or deserved this money as much as Eddie Ball, a boy who lives in a trailer park in Louisiana with his widowed mother, Rebecca Ball. Rebecca was recently laid off from Finkle Foods, and Eddie was determined to run George Finkle, the founder, out of business. He entered the contest by writing a rap poem, which was turned down by his friend Annie "Oakley" Stokely. Annie wrote another poem, which went good and Eddie won and then shot but then George Finkle makes him an offer he will give his mom a job and he will give Eddie a free scholarship to any college. Will he take the deal or not?
