The University of Connecticut Huskies won the national title Monday night, and students celebrated by, well, being enthusiastic.
Illegal fireworks, riots, fire and lamp post climbing. Obviously Uconn won ??

Perhaps no one was dreading the festivities more than “Derek the RA,” whose note to students went viral, sending his name trending nationally.
This RA from UCONN had to know he would incite a riot w this email. What a tool. pic.twitter.com/2Q6i8DikX7

Somewhere in Storrs there's cheering
Somewhere students shout.
But there is no joy on Derek the RA's floor
He long since said "lights out".— Sean Grande (@SeanGrandePBP) April 8, 2014

As bad as this must feel for Kentucky… I imagine it's far worse for Derek the RA
