“The disrespect”: College hoops fans react to South Carolina players doing ‘The Macarena’ vs. Indiana in Sweet 16 clash Cardoso and Johnson Did Macarena Against Indiana.
The South Carolina Gamecocks defeated the Indiana Hoosiers 79-75 in a highly anticipated Sweet 16 matchup on Friday.
South Carolina, the No. 1 seed in the Albany 1 region, led by 17 points at the end of the first half. At the beginning of the second half, a few Gamecocks players, including Kamilla Cardoso and Raven Johnson, were seen performing the iconic ‘Macarena’ on the court.
This led to mixed reactions from college hoops fans on X (formerly Twitter).
“The disrespect,” said one fan.
“Imagine you’re fighting for your life against a team this talented. And then you look across the court to them laughing and doing the Macarena. I would be calling for a sub,” one fan commented.
“If this was LSU though, Twitter would be in a outrage right now.”
“Honestly, I think it’s just cool that they are having fun – and enjoying life out there – good for health.”
“So many effing years to be an adult – I’m glad they are having fun – good for these Gamecock women hoopers.”
“They might have started it too early! (I mean , I fully exepct them to win, but Indiana isn’t going down without a fight!)”
“Yea, came too relaxed in the second half.”
