Here's How UNC Got the Michael Jordan Crying Meme Up Off Them Last Night
Oh, what a difference a year makes. Last year, the University of North Carolina was on the receiving end of a devastating, buzzer-beating three-pointer that had it losing the national championship game to Villanova in heartbreaking fashion. The Tar Heels' most famous alumnus, Michael Jordan, watching the game live and instantly getting his own MJ crying meme treatment only made the loss that much more painful to stomach.
Well, the Tar Heels did their part, clawing their way back to the national title game and this time they didn't disappoint, pulling out a 71-65 victory over Gonzaga last night for their sixth championship. (Ironically, Kris Jenkins, the Villanova player who hit the three-pointer to defeat UNC last year, was sitting behind the Tar Heels' bench, as he's the adopted brother of North Carolina guard Nate Britt).
Here's a bunch of reactions to UNC getting the MJ crying meme up off them. Sorry, Gonzaga, but you have to hold the L this year. Salute, champs!
