Cornell Basketball and Hockey Captains Demand that You Put a Ring on It

by | May 12, 2010 at 1:05 am

Just when you thought “Single Ladies” parodies were tired and stale — well, okay they still are… But at any rate, this video is incongruous and wacky enough to tickle our fancy. Here are Cornell’s basketball and hockey captains awkwardly dancing/convulsing to the dulcet tones of Beyonce’s seminal relationship anthem. The eligible ladies in question are Louis Dale, Jeff Foote, Ryan Wittman (ballers) and Colin Grenning, Brendon Nash, and Joe Scali (skaters.) Apparently, the video is part of a promotion for Cornell’s prom-like end of year dance (Congrats! You’re all invited!) We’re especially fans of 2:02, at which an enthusiastic head-jerk sends a pair of athletic sunglasses flying. He should have put a band on it.

Video.

    Don’t forget, Klein, that all proceeds go to the United Way of Tompkins County. And that (gasp) frat boys have been instrumental in running this event since its inception.

    Only Foote and Greening (also, not Grenning) are captains. Nice fact-checking, as usual. This blog is so great.

    As a hockey fan, I just don't know what to say.
