After capturing a gold medal during the 10th Arab Shooting Championship in Kuwait on Thursday, Maria Dmitrienko brought great pride to her home country of Kazakhstan. However, what should have been a memorable moment soon turned into a huge practical joke when the parody national anthem, "O Kazakhstan," from Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan started playing over the loud speaker. Needless to say, Maria was none too pleased. After all, the folks over at SportsGrid bring up a good point: how would you feel if "America, F**k Yeah" came on during your medal ceremony? Actually...that wouldn't be too bad, to be honest.
