Also announcing that Kentucky basketball will grace the cover of its cereal this week: the lesser known, but equally delicious, Klaneeos.
Hands down, the best part of the video is how "The Breakfast of Champions" is said right over highlights of the UK/Georgia game. It's like an NBA ad where "I love this game" is said in sync with a clip of Stephen Jackson unloading a haymaker in row seven at The Palace.
