Well I strongly disagree and I'm not going to change my mind.  At one point during the game I was watching there was a cheap knock off of the Beaver mascot vigorously making out with a cheap knock off of the Duck mascot.  That's not clever or funny to me.   That's lame and in poor taste.  The TV commentators were nearly at a loss for words but you could tell they were uncomfortable.  That's not the first time I've seen something along those lines.  They definitely try to push the boundaries.  At best they are sophomoric.  It's also a spectacle.  It seems they are trying to makes themselves into a bigger draw than the game itself.  Thankfully most student fan bases at schools across the country have more dignity and taste and have not followed suit.

Let me ask this, would UConn fans be excited to see their owns students imitating the Curtain of Distraction?  I'm pretty sure the answer to that is an easy "no."  Probably not everybody commenting here is UConn fans, hard to keep track sometimes.  I guess substitute whichever school is your primary rooting interest.  Anyway I'm pretty sure Geno would put the kibosh on that if anyone tried it in Storrs or Hartford.
