In case you missed Eminem’s appearance in the broadcast booth during halftime of the Michigan-Notre Dame game, here’s how the interview began. Em had joined Kirk Herbstreit and Brent Musburger to help promote his newest single, “Berzerk”, off his next album Marshall Mathers LP 2. It almost goes without saying that things started a little, um, weird.

Naturally, ESPN has uploaded a different version to their official YouTube account, editing out all the weirdness at the beginning (BECAUSE  THAT TOTALLY DIDN’T JUST HAPPEN, AND NOW NOBODY WILL EVER KNOW, RIGHT?!?!).

Of course, we’d never leave you hangin’ without an animated .gif of the moment ESPN apparently would like you to forget.
