'Villanova Piccolo Girl' Sits In With The Roots on The Tonight Show

As a Michigan fan (Go Blue!), March Madness has mostly missed me this year. However, one of the more memorable moments from the NCAA Tournament this past weekend was undoubtedly embodied by “Villanova Piccolo Girl.” Her moment quickly spread around the net after the TBS cameras caught her in tears while playing the piccolo for Villanova’s band as her Wildcats suffered a heartbreaking loss to North Carolina State. As a nice gesture, Jimmy Fallon had her (Roxanne Chalifoux) sit-in with The Roots on last night’s airing of The Tonight Show. Watch her play with The Roots, get interviewed by Jimmy, and receive a nice gift-basket from the show.
