Aly Raisman’s parents are officially internet-famous. Joining the ranks of Laughing Baby, and Double Rainbow guy, their adorably intense reaction to one of Aly’s Olympic gymnastics routines is making the rounds online – sweeping up YouTube views and hitting sports news sections from the LA Times to USA Today. The clip shows Aly’s parents rocking and rolling along to their daughter’s uneven bars routine as if they were flying through the air themselves.
The made-for-TV-moment didn’t just steal hearts online – Aly’s parent’s hilarious reaction was the number one top-watched moment of NBC’s primetime Olympic coverage Sunday, as we reported on the blog in TiVo’s Olympic Coverage.
The clip even received Andy Cohen’s coveted Mazel of the Day on last night’s episode of Watch What Happens Live. A television clip of an audience reaction to a live sporting event goes viral and is selected from the web to be featured on another television show. Welcome to 2012!
