Watch Mizzou's Robotic Dog that Really Did Perform at Halftime

I have no doubt this will lead to lots of jokes about the University of Mizzou's defense, but a robotic dog really did dance at halftime of this past weekend's game and there's new video to prove it.

I lack words to sufficiently express how creepy this robot dog is. I never thought I'd utter those words, but I did. Watch it yourself...if you dare.

I saw this trending on Digg and it's understandable why. Was that robot twerking AND moonwalking? (*face palm*)

I'm no football expert, but after watching the Missouri defense the past couple of games I think that research money could be better spent helping the team that lost by 38 to Tennessee and got upset by Kentucky.

I have a lot of friends and family that went to the University of Missouri over the years and they're super-smart people. Want to invent a robot that can bring me refreshments during the game? Awesome. Got a R2D2 that can fix the tires on my car? Perfect. Want to make a robot dance nasty for me? I'll take a hard pass on that one, thanks.
