I love that....seeing other Western athletes and fans going nuts when she hit it.
I can't find it now, but I saw another one on twitter that was a video of 3....I think maybe softball players...in someone's apartment watching it and when she hit it they were jumping all over the room.

And if you haven't seen it (I think I posted it earlier), you gotta check out the reaction from the watch party at the union:
