My sports fan friends couldn’t get enough of this. I didn’t even find out until just a few minutes ago, but everyone is talking about it ’round the water cooler..
I LOVE COLLEGE SPORTS! PAT, YOU GO GIRL!
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Pat Summitt wore an orange cheerleader uniform, sang “Rocky Top” and stood on top of a human pyramid to show her support of the Tennessee men’s basketball team Tuesday night.
The legendary Lady Vols coach came through on a promise to make a special appearance during the men’s game against No. 5 Florida.
She was paying back men’s coach Bruce Pearl for painting his upper body orange and cheering at a Lady Vols game last month.
Summitt came out during the first media timeout of the game shrouded by other cheerleaders and started singing “Rocky Top” while holding a microphone and wearing an orange and white feathery hat and cheerleader uniform.
At the end of the song, she put her hat on ESPN commentator Dick Vitale. Then she helped lead cheers with the cheerleaders and her assistant coaches and finished by being the top of a short pyramid formed by assistants Holly Warlick and Dean Lockwood. (via)

1My boyfriend told me about this, but I don’t really even know this lady. Apparently it was a big deal because that’s all that people talked about in ESPN

2Well, you know ESPN, when they get a story, they run with it. But, all things aside, I really like the passion she has for her school.
