There have been some classic moments and antics from the Camer0n Crazies, but one of the most memorable was Speedo Guy, back in 2003.
The basic plot was to have everyone near him sit down, and when a UNC foul shooter got to the line, Speedo Guy was going to jump up and shake and shimmy in his skivvies.
As it turned out, the guy who was shooting for UNC was Jackie Manuel, and he missed both.
This video dives into the whole business, with commentary from Speedo Guy, aka Patrick King, Mullet Man, Eric
Montross, Jackie Manuel, and former coach Mike Krzyzewski.
Oh, and it turned out that the stunt made a real impression on a girl who was dating Speedo Guy’s brother: she shifted brothers, they got married, and now have two kids. We only hope they both wear Speedos at the pool to honor their dad.
Anyway, this was one of the all-time great moments in Cameron, though Coach K made it clear that it was going to be a one-off (pun intended).
Patrick King is now a minister, and presumably his Speedos are mostly retired, but as he shows at the end of the video, you can take the Crazy out of Cameron, but you can’t take Cameron out of the Crazy.
