After witnessing a crash, cheerleaders turn license plate into cheer
Cheerleader Chant Leads To Driver Involved In Crash
"Gimme A 7! Gimme A 6!'

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- A team of cheerleaders attending a camp in Ann Arbor did what came naturally after witnessing a crash on Wednesday afternoon.

The Lincoln High School varsity cheerleading squad turned a license plate number into a cheer when a man driving a pickup truck involved in the collision fled the scene, according to the Ann Arbor News.

"We just started to chant it so we'd remember it and help them get the guy," senior captain Kimmie Ostrowski told the paper.

Police reports indicated that the man's truck hit the rear of a car stopped at a traffic light near the campus of the University of Michigan, according to the paper. The impact caused a chain reaction with two other cars.

6. I wonder how many of these girls had cell phones on them.
in which they could have stored the license plate #, given that they didn ot have the mental storage space to store it in their cute little craniums.

9. Imagine that trial....
Four years later and the first cheerleader witness is still spelling out her answer to the first question

Prosecutor: Ma'am, would you please tell the court your name, age, and occupation?

Witness One: Gimme a K! Gimme an E! Gimme an L! Gimme an L! Gimme an I.....what's that spell? KELLI! Wooohooo! :breaks into one-woman pyramid, court reporter flees in tears, unable to transcribe accurately:

Witnees One again: Gimme an E! Gimme an I! Gimme a G!......

10. "Team of cheerleaders did what came naturally after witnessing crash"
That was the Fark.com headline. Cheering didn't immediately come to mind, but then my mind is FILTHY.

12. I don't know if it is a fluke only I am seeing
But in the lower right hand corner there is a distortion that makes it appear that the cheerleader has something explosive emanating from her rear end.
