Kansas basketball does the Harlem Shake (VIDEO)

Kansas snapped a three-game losing skid on Monday with an 83-62 win over Kansas State. The Jayhawks not only defeated their in-state rival, but they also stayed atop the Big 12 standings. And how did they celebrate?

Like so many people have done in recent weeks -- they did Harlem Shake, the new viral meme taking over the Internet.

The video, posted to YouTube on Friday, starts with Bill Self drawing up plays then finally writing, “HARLEM SHAKE!!!” on the white board before exiting. It appears Ben McLemore is the one that starts the dance, based off his appearance in a previous Harlem Shake video.

Love the Chappelle’s Show reference at the :39 mark.
