The internet is losing it over this saxophone player crying after her team lost a March Madness basketball game

March Madness is in full swing and one by one, collegiate basketball teams from around the country are being eliminated from the competition.

Including the University of Kentucky; the UK team lost to Indiana University by six points in a game on Saturday. Fans are understandably disappointed, but perhaps no one was more distraught than this UK saxophone player weeping after her team was defeated. 

Check it out. 

People watching the game were quick to point out the distraught instrumentalist on Twitter.  

While others pointed out the similarities between the crying UK band member and Roxanne Chalifoux, better known as "Crying piccolo girl," who made headlines for her similarly teary reaction after the Villanova Wildcats lost to North Carolina State in 2015.

Some folks were less than sympathetic toward the crying girl and her losing team. 

There are still plenty of March Madness games left before the championship game on April 4, so there's still plenty of time for more weeping musicians to take the internet by storm. We're hoping for a tuba player.
