Kanye West performed at the closing ceremonies of the Pan Am Games in Toronto yesterday. After some technical difficulties he entered himself into the new mic tossing competition. From The Guardian:

Midway through Kanye West’s performance of Good Life at the Closing Ceremony of the Pan Am Games in Toronto, his mic and backing track went dead. Gamely, he continued to rap for a minute or so, as if trying to reach the 40,000 spectators (and 6,000 athletes from 41 countries) in the Rogers Centre by willpower alone. He then hurled his microphone into the air and walked off, leaving half the crowd cheering and the other half wondering what the hell had just happened.

Here’s a couple clips:
