Mike Tyson mistakenly congratulates Cincinnati on winning national title
Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson deserves some credit for attempting to salute the UConn Huskies on winning their fourth consecutive national championship Tuesday night, but his execution was slightly off.
After Breanna Stewart scored 24 points to lead the University of Connecticut past Syracuse in the final, Tyson congratulated University of Cincinnati on a magnificent four-year run. Tyson deleted the tweet, but it will live on the Internet forever.
Thanks for the support @MikeTyson you're one of our favorite actors. We loved your performance in The Hangover. pic.twitter.com/95adClLAge

Oops. If you're wondering, the Bearcats went 8-22 this season and missed the NCAA tournament. Cincinnati did play UConn earlier this season, losing by a score of 88-34.
