Video captures the ecstasy and agony of Kentucky fans during final seconds of heartbreaking March Madness loss to UNC

The Tar Heels led by six with a minute left, and then Kentucky's Malik Monk nailed a three to bring the Wildcats within three. On the other end, Carolina missed the first free throw of a one-and-one, and then Monk drilled another triple to suddenly tie the game with seven seconds left.

Then, chaos.

UNC raced up the court, the ball somehow landed in the hands of sophomore Luke Maye, who drained a jumper to give Carolina the lead with 0.3 seconds left.

Ballgame, UNC.

Here's the final stretch of play from the game:

The video from the Kentucky bar, really, is March Madness in all its glory. Both the ecstasy and — for Kentucky — the agony.
