Boise State Sad Cowbell Girl Is Blind, We Are All Monsters

Just minutes after the Fiesta Bowl halftime show, Boise State Sad Cowbell Girl (BSSCG) launched into Internet History and began the Uninspired Cowbell Twang That Launched A Thousand Animated GIFs. We all spent the rest of the game trying to figure out how we could have fun with the image of her despondent bell-smacking effort.

Turns out, we’re all evil monsters (then again, you already knew that). According to a Boise State student and a Chicago sportswriter , BSSCG is actually blind, which explains why she seemed so nonplussed with a camera right in her face.
