I could end this day by giving you a rousing recap of today’s bowl-game action and UConn’s thrilling overtime hoops win over Gonzaga, but screw it. Instead, I’m bringing you some video of the Sacramento Kings Dance Team making a calendar.
The exploits of this particular dance team have been well-covered, so it’s only natural to want to check in and see what they’re up to every once in a while. And you will be impressed, as the ladies braved temperatures below 40 degrees to get their 2009 calendar completed in time. That’s dedication, folks.
Video after the jump.
Sacramento’s NEWS 10 has the video, and this quote from team captain Jenn:
“I thought it would be goosebumps and shivering, so I guess expecting the worst worked out pretty well.”
And, unfortunately, NEWS 10’s embedding feature isn’t working, so I have to just give you the link to the full-size video. (See new video below.)
But, I don’t want to leave you with nothing here, so in the spirit of the holiday season, here’s some footage of the Kings Dance Team’s preseason photo shoot:
*UPDATE*: By George, I think we’ve got it. Enjoy:

40 degrees? Poor gals. Well, I would have been glad to help them keep warm.

I really hope the cold temps are properly presented in the final calendar. It was a bit nipply, er, nippy out.

I'm getting shivers just looking at these girls. And it has nothing to do with the weather.

Did anyone think to do the photo shoot inside a studio instead?
