Hoosier fans highlight last year's win against UK through Christmas lights

FORT WAYNE, IN. (WKYT) -- You might have seen the video on Facebook and YouTube. A family in Fort Wayne, Indiana, who are also die hard Hoosier fans, are highlighting UK's last second loss last year against IU.

The home has gained national attention, with hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube.

You can actually turn the radio dial to hear the call as Christian Watford made the game-winning three-pointer.

The Giradots say they were inspired when the shot when in.

"You know we were excited, and as IU fans we were jumping up and down and we just thought that next year when we do our lights, that'd be a cool thing to put on there," said Missy Giradot. "We just figured people would enjoy it."
