Mon, February 8, 2010 |

A view of the Valparaiso University men's basketball team celebrating after "The Shot" that launched their 1998 run to the Sweet Sixteen was featured in a Super Bowl advertisement for FLO TV, featuring Will.i.am's remix of "My Generation." The ad can be viewed online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKUUfPG8vx8.

The clip featuring Valpo's team can be found at the 47-second mark in the commercial, a compilation of historical events and shared experiences that have united generations of television viewers.

Bryce Drew made "The Shot" in the opening round of the 1998 NCAA Tournament when he scored a three-point basket that clinched the Crusaders' 70-69 upset over Mississippi. "The Shot" is seen each year on CBS during "March Madness" and is considered one of the most iconic moments in NCAA history.
