Kentucky played "Callin' Baton Rouge" in final minutes of LSU win

You know how I know Kentucky’s dream season is alive? In the final minutes of the 42-21 thumping of LSU, the DJ at Kroger Field played “Callin’ Baton Rouge,” a troll move of the highest degree. If you didn’t hear it on television, here’s a snippet from Jennifer Palumbo:

UK playing ‘Callin’ Baton Rouge’ by @garthbrooks is the ultimate trolling, and I love it!!! #BBN #WeAreUK pic.twitter.com/XX1hWJw3RI

The song choice did not go unnoticed.

Big ups to @UKFootball. Not only did they end the Orgeron era, but they played Callin’ Baton Rouge to put salt in the wound. Good job.

"Callin' Baton Rouge" is in the general oeuvre of Commonwealth Stadium music selections, but I must say that is quite the troll job!!!!!! #GoBigBlue #BBN pic.twitter.com/4j8jRymaeF

Whoever played Callin’ Baton Rouge while @UKFootball is beating LSU deserves a raise. #BBN pic.twitter.com/n0yJG69fje

Kroger Field blasting Callin’ Baton Rouge is petty and disrespectful and 100% deserved. It was a domination.

If you had told me this 10-years ago, I’d have said LSU’s next five plays would be:
TD
Onside Recovery
TD
Onside Recovery
TD (2-point conversion) https://t.co/3Yb29HuglV

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this song played while former KSR writer/professional golf caddie Aaron Flener was in attendance. “Callin’ Baton Rouge” is Flener’s go-to karaoke song and he rushed to Lexington from Vegas to be at Kroger Field tonight. I’m sure Aaron will give some encore performances at KSBar and Tin Roof tonight.
