Title: 2015 Meme Championship
Post by: mu03eng on July 13, 2015, 11:12:13 AM: Road the championship:
It's Happening gif - A 4 seed out of the Changing Coaches regional, this competitor has seemingly been a team of destiny. In every round, It's Happening would should it is happening by winning at least 60% of the vote. The toughest challenge presented all tournament was by fellow Shaka drama meme, Respect the Process. Does this meme have momentum on it's side or will it fold when it finally sees tough competition.

JFB - A 5 seed out of the Fun Regional, this meme really blazed a trail and left some competition wondering, what just happened. The biggest match up for JFB was 2014 defending meme champion, Haikus. Shockingly, it wasn't even that close and JFB rode that emotion to a clutch victory of Myron Metcalf, pre-tournament favorite. JFB defeated the Traditional meme to earn a spot in the championship game, but it was hard faught. JFB has seen a lot of action, does it have the energy left to close out this Cinderella run?

It's Happening gif

Another meme to emerge from the crucible that was the post Buzz Williams HC search. This GIF was posted in response to just about every possible coach and even non-coaching possibilities

JFB

Nickname for one of Marquette's best players in the 2000s, Jimmy Butler. A thread looking for a nickname produced this co-development. Ziggy proposed Jimmy F*cking Butler and IAmMarquette followed it up with the acronym, sealing it in MUScoop history

It's happening going to secure the title this year. It was robbed last year.

Though theburreffect2 wasn't the first to point out that It's Happening had the chops to be the champion... 8-)

It's Happening is only a 4-seed?!? That has legitimate title aspirations!!!

I feel your pain, bro. My money was on JFB.

I guess some men appreciate Dom while others are content to swill $0.50 Red, White, and Blues all night in a bar where your feet stick to the floor and the bartender takes swings at your head with an iron eagle topped shillelagh...oh, wait....

Don't sound so disappointed. Mine, unsername+recruit (I attribute it to me) got upset in the 2nd round. I feel like Georgetown.
