THE CRANKSHAFT GAZETTE: Darrin Horn credits Karaoke skills for keeping his job

THIS IS A "FAKE" STORY - DO NOT TAKE IT TOO SERIOUS!



AUTHOR: RUSTY CRANKSHAFT --
Folks at Harold’s Country Club in Yemassee were shocked to see Gamecock Basketball Coach Darrin Horn grab the karaoke microphone late Saturday night.  They shouldn’t have been, as Horn has made the impromptu singing appearances his new calling card at various bars, taverns and restaurants on the weekend.  

Following the Gamecocks loss to Tennesee over the weekend, Horn knew he would have to come up with something good.  “I chose Bridge over Troubled Waters because that is what this season is all about.  Just getting over the rough patch and connecting to next year.  I didn’t see a dry eye in the house when I crooned that last lay me down.”  

Horn has made sure to hit locations in Charleston, Greenville, Aiken, Myrtle Beach and Columbia as well following horrible losses to make sure he keeps the fan base behind him.  “Yes, when I was out at Sandlapper’s a few weeks ago, I got a standing ovation for Comfortably Numb, and the folks in the Upstate really warmed to my version of ‘Basketball’ by Kurtis Blow.”  

USC Athletic Director Eric Hyman is denying rumors that a Greatest Hits CD of Horn’s performances is being put together in lieu of a season highlights DVD.
