Ben McLemore Dancing in the Locker Room Is Mesmerizing [GIF] [UPDATE]

Ben McLemore did a dance that will now supplant the African Anteater Ritual as my go-to dance move at weddings. I can totally do this. Way better than Jeff Withey trying to do Gangnam Style. Withey wisely stays in the background and does the disjointed white guy wiggle here in a move equally as mesmerizing.
McLemore hit the game tying bankshot three pointer last night, and Kansas went on to win in overtime. He’s also a lottery pick candidate averaging almost 17 points a game as a freshman. Good reason to dance.
[UPDATE: As several Kansas fans have pointed out, this dance happened after the win over Ohio State, and not last night]

The African Anteater Ritual was the Bride/Groom dance at Manute Bol’s wedding.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:41 PM
That’s awesome.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:42 PM
Nope. Kansas wore the home whites last night.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:42 PM
This is my go-to GIF to represent how happy I am when good things happen. I love this.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:43 PM
This is awesome. I lol’d
January 10th, 2013 at 1:44 PM
Chances are this isn’t from after hitting the game tying shot, this is most likely from their win over tOSU
January 10th, 2013 at 1:44 PM
This was after the Ohio St. win.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:45 PM
Good catch.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:46 PM
the scoop goes to whereswallace. UPDATE!

Yeah, I corrected it. I should also be checked for color blindness.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:47 PM
Still an awesome gif.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:47 PM
Between Withey’s shoulder shimmy, the head bob from the guy on the left, and the asshole on the right with his shirt in his mouth, I think it’s safe to say the white guys on this team have officially debunked any the “lack of rhythym” myth.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:47 PM
Cue KC Res “I knew nobody was watching this game”.
This is eerily similar to the hava nagila dance
January 10th, 2013 at 1:49 PM
I love college basketball.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:50 PM
i gotta nagila, do you hava nagila?
January 10th, 2013 at 1:50 PM
Can’t buy me love – top 10 movie of the 80s. not debatable.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:50 PM
Reminds me of the “Remember the Titans” scene. Was “Ain’t no Mountain High Enough” IIRC
January 10th, 2013 at 1:51 PM
C’mon big lead, this is clearly after the Ohio State game. Red lockers, KU road Jerseys. Posted on Grantland 2 weeks ago. Weak.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:51 PM
As long as Transformers: The Movie is No. 1, I’m good with anything else being in the top 10.
/YOU’VE GOT THE TOUCH!!!
January 10th, 2013 at 1:52 PM
Why hasn’t anyone mentioned Magic?
January 10th, 2013 at 1:52 PM
If you’re going to dance after a win, it’d better be cheesy. I’m a fan.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:52 PM
never seen can’t buy me love…who’s in it?
January 10th, 2013 at 1:53 PM
Magic Johnson. That’s how he got Aids.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:54 PM
Ah yes, Patrick Dempsey, the guy who plays a character called “McDreamy” on a chick’s TV show, as a nerd. Hollywood gets it!
January 10th, 2013 at 1:55 PM
False. It’s the story of Magic becoming a pariah post-AIDS
January 10th, 2013 at 1:55 PM
Why hasn’t anyone mentioned Magic?
January 10th, 2013 at 1:55 PM
A young Patrick Dempsey.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:56 PM
sweet visiting locker rooms at OSU huh?
January 10th, 2013 at 1:57 PM
My thoughts.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:57 PM
I just got hired on making $36/HR working 84 Hr weeks.
yessssssssss
January 10th, 2013 at 1:58 PM
Cue KC Res “I knew nobody was watching this game”. SC
I mean, this gif is two weeks old and been around the internet a thousand times. And look at that shitty ass locker room. Obviously not KU. I’ll give Lisk a pass because he is a Mizzou fan and could have said horrible things.
January 10th, 2013 at 1:59 PM
How does one get a job as Magic Johnson’s HIV meds?
January 10th, 2013 at 2:00 PM
Also because they don’t even goto the locker room before overtime do they?
January 10th, 2013 at 2:00 PM
Hahahahahha! touche
January 10th, 2013 at 2:01 PM
Jeff Withey is the best part of this. He looks like he expects John Lithgow to burst in at any moment and start berating him for partaking in this heathen activity.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:01 PM
I had never even heard of it until we had our Patrick Dempsey discussion the other day.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:02 PM
was patrick dempsey suzzlebutt’s leg in south park or was that patrick duffy?
January 10th, 2013 at 2:03 PM

I barely had time to take a piss before OT started.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:03 PM
congrats on a lot of money and no time.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:03 PM
Duffy.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:04 PM
was patrick dempsey suzzlebutt’s leg in south park or was that patrick duffy?
I’m going to assume that was Duffy’s. There was never any hate towards Dempsey that I knew of. Patrick Duffy is a shit bag. Or was. I don’t know. What are we talking about?
January 10th, 2013 at 2:05 PM
2 week on 2 week off schedule actually, quite nice.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:05 PM
I believe this was after the Ohio State game
January 10th, 2013 at 2:05 PM
Did you mix up the hours and the wage? Every other hour at work…what are you working for?
January 10th, 2013 at 2:06 PM
patrick duffy was an asshole? link?
January 10th, 2013 at 2:06 PM
Withdrawn.
Your witness.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:06 PM
Drug mule is my best guess for the described working conditions/wage

Not familiar with it. I’ll assume it’s terrible. Lots of good 80′s movies though

hope you are conditioned for mass aphetamine use and various other uppers. I suggest you get a few bottles of “Truckers Delight”.

working with deadbeat dads?
great job to catch up on payments
January 10th, 2013 at 2:18 PM
Or blow it on meth, strippers and steaks.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:20 PM
Go on….

January 10th, 2013 at 2:21 PM
warm heated trailer on tracks, somewhat muddy, working with geologists.
watching the drillers work in the cold for a change.
I’ve been a drill rig operator for the last 2 years.
-60 degrees sucks and this will be a welcome change
January 10th, 2013 at 2:22 PM
Alaska and Florida are the great bastions of deadbeat dad escapism. Well, in fairness, Florida is the destination for all things shitty
January 10th, 2013 at 2:23 PM
FBI recently arrested the most wanted deadbeat dad. This guy on Long Island owed over 1 million in child support
January 10th, 2013 at 2:25 PM
back in the day the fisheries industry looked like a possibility for a cash grab. great pay and nowhere to spend it, but the romanticism dies quickly when you realize you might be in a cannery crawling through fish guts to clear a snag instead of being a reality show high seas hero
lotsa college folks do it in the summer

The South: the south
Cant Buy Me Love is a great 80′s movie. Others:
Real Genius, Better off Dead, Red Dawn, Goonies, Adventures in Babysitting, Footloose, Roadhouse, Big Trouble in Little China, etc.

holy bananbread. i guess the $150 my wife’s ex owes us is a minor inconvenience
January 10th, 2013 at 2:27 PM

January 10th, 2013 at 2:28 PM

Don’t forget The Burbs
January 10th, 2013 at 2:29 PM
Fair enough
January 10th, 2013 at 2:30 PM
never done the cannery thing but its widely reputed to be the worst work ever.
Worked in some of those villages/towns in the summer months before, lots of Russian and Filipino workers.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:32 PM

Deadbeat dadism is quite the epidemic. Sad reality is there are tons of loopholes in the system. Trying to help a client with that right now and it’s tough to collect when dad now lives in Cali and bounces around all the time.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:41 PM
Oh yeah Mitch Kramer. We’re lookin’ for you pal.
January 10th, 2013 at 2:42 PM
Sounds interesting.

I’ve seen many amazing things, but I’ve also been stalked by grizzly bears.
Also amazing, but equally as harrowing
