There was the ESPN version of Wednesday night's game between Gonzaga and Washington State. And then there was the more personal fan perspective – one that tells the story of the last few seconds of the Cougars' loss to the Zags.

A video uploaded on YouTube, shot just above the Cougar bench, shows DaVonte Lacy's thrilling layup in the closing seconds; the home crowd, including the Washington State bench, goes wild. And then Kevin Pangos takes the ball the length of the court to hit a layup with 2.2 left.

The crowd went from joy to agony in a matter of seconds.

If pictures paint a thousand words, it would seem this video paints tens of thousands.
