HAMILTON, Mich. — Hamilton High School sophomore Aiden Lynch's ravenous call of Wednesday's snow day is something akin to a championship buzzer-beater— cheers, fans jumping from their seats, and an announcer who doesn't even try to control their excitement.
A video of his electric announcement is doing real numbers on social media Wednesday— getting mentions on Barstool Sports, Overtime and of course, FOX 17 News.
Here's how it all happened— the Hamilton Hawkeyes varsity boys basketball team had just taken a big W over the West Catholic Falcons, beating them 57-45.
Just seconds before the clock hit zero, Hamilton Schools Superintendent Dr. Bradford Lusk walks into the school's gym.
Immediately, the student section of the crowd notices him and begins chanting.
"And they just started chanting 'Lusk, Lusk', then I hear 'Snow day, Snow day'... just chanting 'Snow day'," Lynch recalled to FOX 17 Wednesday afternoon (as he was enjoying his snow day).
"I guarantee no one watched the last 20 seconds of the game, because of how loud the 'Snow day' calls were."
Lynch watches as Dr. Lusk walks right in front of the student section, lifts his hands in the air, and announces the big news: they won't be having school Wednesday... they were getting the SNOW DAY they had been dreaming of.
“Breaking news! Lusk just called a snow day right here at the student section," Lynch belts out in the video.
"Oh my goodness… I have never seen that before!”
As Aiden let his emotions fly into the microphone, nearly everyone else inside the gym jumped out of their seats in celebration.
"Whooo! No school for me tomorrow!" Lynch exclaims.
National sports outlets are now picking up the video and Aiden's story, sending it all over the world.
“I've been sitting in the student section since last year, and I got so excited in there... and bringing my excitement to a broadcast is something that’s genuine, it's not fake, nothing is scripted, I just go with the flow, and let it happen.”
Aiden is nearing the end of his first season of live sports broadcasting, but plans to take on the challenge again next season.
“Finally i was like, I got to get back to this, like Hamilton basketball just won... I've got to end the stream, and stay up all night for my snow day."
