It's no secret that Chapel Hill, home of the Tar Heels, saw its fair share of revelers on Monday night. This is a slight uptick from most Monday nights; college towns are beer-crazed and all, but rare is the weeknight that sees underclassmen setting mass spontaneous fires. Except at Ohio State. (ZING.)

Anyway, the point of this post is a really mesmerizing time-lapse video developed by the fine students at the Daily Tar Heel, who no doubt took a break from having long, sanctimonious Freedom Of Information Act-related conversations with that one really weird campus reporter who always wears a tie and a fedora to put it together. Student journalism -- it's a balancing act:

See? Told you it was cool. If you squint hard enough, you can see the fires forming! It's like watching a star be born. And if you really strain your eyes, you can see Michigan State's title hopes go up in smoke.
