A young piccolo (it's a type of flute, basically) player saw her own team, Villanova, lose to North Carolina State in a recent college basketball match-up.

As part of the college band, the young woman had to continue playing despite the obvious emotion she was feeling.

A quick-witted cameraman kept the shot on her and it's since gone viral.

As we said, the Internet is a strange and silly place.
