Big East Baseball Tournament Turns Into a Dance-Off

Rain delays just got a lot less boring

The Big East is best known as a basketball conference, and the following video isn't going to do much to change anyone's mind. UCONN and South Florida were set to square off in the conference baseball tournament when rain intervened. Don't feel bad for the teams, though. Life may have given them lemons, but they gave life the greatest college baseball dance-off in history.

The video goes on for a long time, so it's probably a good thing that there's no work on Monday. For a highlight, though, jump to the 3:20 mark when a South Florida Bull does a pretty damn good rendition of a Michael Jackson routine.

Bet you thought you'd never see the Macarena again in your lifetime? And it probably wasn't a bet you were hoping to lose.

It's good to see the players making the best of their plight. You have to wonder, though, if any of the players had enough energy left to actually play the game when all was said and done. Then you realize it's just a game of baseball and get back to dancing.
