BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS: Larry David's appearance at the UConn Huskies' NCAA March Madness tournament game against Illinois has gone massively viral, providing entertainment far beyond the court, as per New York Post.

The 'Seinfeld' co-creator and star of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' was caught on camera repeatedly exhibiting his signature grumpy behavior throughout the Huskies' 77-52 blowout victory. From nail-biting and leg-stretching to ear-plugging and outbursts at the coaches, David's hilariously miserable reactions have captured the internet's attention.

David, 76, was seated courtside at TD Garden in Boston, where he was caught on camera exhibiting a range of disgruntled behaviors.

Videos and photos circulated online, showing the comedian biting his nails and stretching his leg over the guard railing. "I'm in Boston and my friend got me tickets," David revealed to CT Insider, explaining his presence at the game.



 

As UConn's lead grew to a commanding 56-25 margin, David was captured on the big screen, appearing to express his annoyance to the person sitting next to him, seemingly questioning why he had to be displayed in such a manner. Several reporters also shared amusing quotes of David's outbursts directed at UConn coach Dan Hurley.

"Shame on you, Hurley!," David reportedly yelled, CBS Sports' Matt Norlander reported. "Take those starters out! Stop coaching! The game is over!"

David's antics didn't stop there. He was also caught on video with fingers in his ears while an Illinois fan cheered at the top of his voice near David's seat. Even his exit from TD Garden was met with hilarious encounters, as fans continuously stopped him for selfies and autographs, further adding to his frustration.
