Brett Favre 'Pants on the Ground' Performance Ends Vikings-Cowboys Game (VIDEO)

Brett Favre and Jared Allen Led the Vikings in Rendition of 'Pants on the Ground'

Brett Favre's 'Pants of the Ground' performance was a show stopper. Brett Favre started singing 'Pants on the Ground' in the Vikings locker room right after the Vikings blew out the Cowboys on Sunday afternoon. Those who watch American Idol already know all about what this song represents, and apparently Brett Favre watches American Idol as well. The 'Pants on the Ground' song was one that a contestant performed on an episode of American Idol this week, and it immediately caught hold on the internet to become a very viral video for both the show and the artist. Favre may have messed up the lyrics a tad, but it was still quite funny.

Now Brett Favre has brought 'Pants on the Ground' to the fans of the NFL as well, singing the first few lines of the song in order to get his team excited in the post-game celebration. As the team huddled around Brett Favre and Jared Allen after the game, Favre began by starting the song 'Pants on the Ground' and was quickly joined by nearly ever Viking in the locker room. It got a great laugh not just from all of the players and the team personnel, but from the Fox broadcasters as well as they watched from the studio. It would bring a smile to anyone's face that wasn't rooting for the Dallas Cowboys, and could be the most memorable moment of this day of NFL Playoff games.

The song 'Pants on the Ground' came from General Larry Platt, who took the stage at the Atlanta, Georgia auditions for American Idol this season. Platt is 62-years-old, but you wouldn't know it just by watching the man, as he took to the stage with a lot of energy. He was obviously outside the demographic for contestants on the show (you have to be 28 years old or younger), but it was still a fun moment that the producers of the show let happen on camera. Now Larry Platt has become a household name for his 'Pants on the Ground' song, and Brett Favre has just elongated his fame even further, to a point where a recording of this could now be released.

    Brett had promised Percy Harvin that he would sing it if the Vikes won. And the butt slap to Jared Allen is typical Favre. Hilarious video!!
