During the American Idol auditions in Atlanta, as seen during night-two of the hit FOX reality show this week, General Larry Platt sang an original song “Pants on the Ground”.
The 62-year-old was a hit with the judges but was ineligible to continue on as a contestant because the age limit is 28. That didn’t stop his little ditty from becoming a viral internet hit.
Everybody is getting into the act. See Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings rendition here.
Capitalizing on the wave, Jimmy Fallon performed the song as Neil Young might have. View more photos and check out the original performance of “Pants on the Ground” and the late night talk show host’s version below.
