Rise and Shout, a flash mob is out!

What a great time to be a Cougar!! Despite the difficult loss last Wednesday after hearing that one of our key players was suspended from the team for an Honor code violation, my BYU team came back yesterday and blew me away. With a 102-78 win over the Wyoming Cowboys, the Marriot center was full of energy and excitement. The "Jimmer Mania" continued with Jimmer Ferdette swishing shots no regular human being would consider possible and making drives to the basket through a crowd of four defenders (And 1!). Of course, the other players on the team like Emery and Collinsworth showed their skills as well.

However, my favorite part of the game was the Student Section's surprise flash mob dance!! Students have been arriving at the games hours early with some even camping out all week. So for the two hours before the game on Wednesday, and the two hours before the game yesterday, the student section has been practicing our choreographed dance. During a timeout with about 7 mins left in the game, we as the student section revealed our true spirit and gave our farewell gift to our incredible 2011 team. It was incredible to be part of such an awesome moment! Here is the film from YouTube (and yes, the audience gives us a standing ovation and Cosmo is crowd surfing). I love being a college student! GO BYU COUGARS!
