‘Happy National Peacock Day’: Top reaction to Saint Peter’s feat of history at March Madness

Arguably the greatest Cinderella run in March Madness history lives on.

Saint Peter’s, who had already turned heads reaching the Sweet 16, defeated No. 3 Purdue 67-64 on Friday to become the first-ever No. 15 seed to reach the Elite Eight.

It’s a tremendous achievement considering no team ranked beyond 13th had ever reached this stage before. Now a meeting with No. 8 North Carolina or No. 4 UCLA is all that is standing between the Peacocks and the Final Four.

Here are the best reactions to the Saint Peter’s Cinderella run living on.
