"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yes, the&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Sharknado&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;series is insane, preposterous and\u2014depending on your mindset\u2014incredible or wildly pathetic.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And yes, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban\u2019s take on the presidency during Wednesday night\u2019s premiere of &lt;em&gt;Sharknado 3&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;was... remarkable.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For the uninitiated, the&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Sharknado&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;series is a trio of made-for-TV movies produced by Syfy. As the series\u2019 Wikipedia page puts it, the essence of each movie boils down to \u201Ca&amp;nbsp;waterspout&amp;nbsp;that lifts&amp;nbsp;sharks&amp;nbsp;out of the ocean and deposits them in&amp;nbsp;Los Angeles.\u201D* The first one aired in 2013, followed by&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Sharknado 2: The Second One&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;in 2014 and Wednesday night\u2019s &lt;em&gt;Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!&lt;/em&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*&lt;em&gt;The same thing happened in Sharkando 2: The Second One, but in New York.&lt;/em&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cuban made his first appearance four minutes into &lt;em&gt;Sharknado 3&lt;/em&gt;, thanking the aptly named hero of the series, Fin Shepard,&amp;nbsp;for his actions in... well we\u2019re not really sure. We were too distracted by the notion of Mark Cuban as U.S. president. And Ann Coulter as vice president.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;\u2022 Mariners thrive in weeks following a &lt;em&gt;Sharknado&lt;/em&gt; movie release&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n&lt;em&gt;Vine: Erick Fernandez&lt;/em&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cuban, who coincidentally is also a panel member on ABC\u2019s aspiring entrepreneur reality series &lt;em&gt;Shark Tank&lt;/em&gt;, later ended up with a shotgun in his hands, exclaiming, \u201CNobody attacks my house!\u201D as he exits an elevator while cocking said shotgun.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Presumably, that was because of the numerous shark attacks. Again, this plot was just a little bit convoluted.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Retired NFL receiver Chad \u201COchocinco\u201D Johnson\u2014&lt;em&gt;working for NASA&lt;/em&gt;\u2014and NASCAR drive Brad Keselowski also both made appearances.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update 2:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Some Washington Redskins also got in on the fun.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update 3:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Mark Cuban grenaded&amp;nbsp;a shark!\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n&lt;em&gt;GIF: Imgur&lt;/em&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Mike Fiammetta&lt;/em&gt;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
