Watch a Hockey Player Casually Slip the Word ‘Meow’ Into an Interview Seven Times

Kalamazoo Wings hockey player Ray Kaunisto decided to spice up an otherwise mundane interview by playing the “meow game” from the comedy Super Troopers. (For the uninitiated: the game comes from a scene in which a cop pulls over a driver and proceeds to sneak the word “meow” into the conversation as many times as possible. That’s it.)

Kaunisto does a respectable job, managing to meow seven times in a 40-second interview. As ESPN points out, reporter Ben Garrod seems to get the joke, but remains composed and doesn’t crack a smile until the interview’s over.
