Don’t tell this genius student that you can’t watch March Madness in class, because he found the perfect way to do so…with help from a friend

Every college basketball fan experiences the struggle at one point or another. When you’re a student and the First Round of the NCAA Tournament gets underway, class is still in session. Moreover, the majority of teachers aren’t going to abandon a lesson in favor of letting the kids watch March Madness. For one anonymous student, all that means was that he had to flex his creative muscles.

Admittedly, the Turner Broadcasting family and the NCAA have made it easy to watch March Madness while being mobile. With the Live app, you can live stream any game that’s on. So that certainly helps in finding ways to watch the action. Even still, it takes some brilliance to be able to find out how to do so without getting caught.

On Friday, a brief video surfaced on Reddit of a student that had found the absolutely perfect way to watch March Madness and almost certainly not get caught. With the help of an assumed friend sitting in front of him, he taped his phone to the back of his friend.
