Nobody pumps up a crowd quite like Conor McGregor.

The world of college basketball was in for a surprise when the UFC superstar attended Tuesday night’s game between BYU and Baylor, which saw the Cougars beat the Bears 93-89 in overtime. Perhaps, Ireland’s McGregor was the good luck charm BYU needed – hyping up the crowd courtside.

McGregor’s been making the rounds on social media as of late, attending last weekend’s packed 17,000+ fan show at BKFC Knuckle Mania to the energetic BYU game in Utah.
