Ron Hunter falling off his stool is now a bobblehead
Few images from last year’s NCAA Tournament are as permanently ingrained in our memories as the moment that Georgia State head coach Ron Hunter fell off his stool after son RJ hit a last-second three to lift the team to an upset victory over Baylor in the first round. Now, that moment has been forever immortalized in fantastic fashion.
A new bobblehead has been released to commemorate the unforgettable scene. The bobblehead, which is apparently being sold at the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum for $25, depicts Hunter, who was stool-ridden at the time after tearing his Achilles celebrating the team’s conference championship the week before, mid-celebration (and mid-spill).

Just when I thought I had seen it all. Just when I thought that all of the memes were entertaining enough already.
March Madness history has never been done quite like this. And it’s absolutely glorious.
Is this the part where I’m supposed to say, “Just shut up and take my money”?
