We're taking a break from the countdown to talk about an event taking place in Cleveland this weekend.  The NBA, Sprite, and LeBron James are hosting a Slam Dunk Showdown this weekend during the Marc's Great American Rib Cook Off and Music Festival.

Basically, here's the deal.  The Showdown is all about finding the top amateur dunkers in the area.  If you prove yourself here, you could compete against other non-collegiate dunkers all across the country. 

Here's how you can compete.  Submit a video of yourself dunking here http://www.nba.com/dunk/ and you could be selected to compete.  This is a great opportunity for the best dunkers in Cleveland to show their stuff.  If you don't fancy yourself a dunker, at least treat yourself to seeing some of the best local dunkers at their finest.  The Showdown will be at Time Warner Cable Amphitheater, 1187 W. 3rd Street in Cleveland.  Here's what the schedule looks like for the weekend.   

Friday: 11am to 11pm
Saturday: Noon to 11pm
Sunday: Noon to 11pm
Monday: Noon to 8pm

LeBron is hosting the event, and you won't be disappointed if you go.  We all know LeBron can dunk... now it's your turn.  LeBron James is Underrated
