This is a bit old, but damn if I'm not a sucker for internet memes.
LAist does a decent job of explaining the phenomenon to those of you fortunate enough not to have been initiated yet:If you don't know what a Rick Roll is and you've never experienced a two-day long orgasm or won a free iPod, welcome back to the internet. We've missed you the past year. There's even a Rickroll database out there for your protection.

I can only imagine the dirty looks I'll get for this, but it's the honest truth: I'm 23, I have Rick Astley's 1990 album Whenever You Need Somebody, have it all ripped to my mp3 playlist, and had it well before the Rickrolling phenomenon took off. Rick Astley FTW. My music tastes rule. Never Gonna Give You Up is no better than the third best track on that album.
but, to be on topic, if you're gonna rickroll, go big or go home. God love that effort in the Eastern Washington girls hoops game.
I love it. That is hilarious.
It's nice, but it's a fake.

KE, I've never seen you post here before.
I assume you go around visiting sites that pop up when you google "rick roll'd".
Not to say I judge you.
Good catch KE. I still want to believe, though..
Gawd help us all.
I never believed that song was sung by a skinny white dude until I saw the video on VH1 some years ago. Dude has pipes.
