Watch: East Texas Cheerleaders' Tribute to 9/11 Goes Viral with Mixed Reactions

Heart wrenching, jaw dropping or head scratching -- you decide.

There's always been a fine line between earnestness and camp. But rarely has that line been finer than in Texas, where each year, a cheerleading squad from Lumberton High School perform a routine to commemorate the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center.

Set to a soundtrack featuring Lee Greenwood's "God Bless The USA" interspersed with recordings of news reports, panicked phone calls from witnesses and the address to the nation by then-president George W. Bush, the cheerleading squad from Lumberton High School emote, flip, throw girls in the air and eventually wave pompoms in the shape of "USA" with great seriousness to the delight of the crowd in the packed gymnasium.

"This wasn't a way for us to show off. It was a way for us to use our skills in honor of our country," cheerleader Rachel Richard said according to E! Online.

The video, which was uploaded to YouTube by Crystalynn Petoskey, who on Facebook wrote "Cheerleaders 9/11 routine. So good it'll make you cry," went viral over the weekend, and was met with mixed reactions, so much that comments were disabled.

"Everybody that is saying that this is, well, basically a disaster, I don't care what you all say. Others like it, others don't. I respect your opinions. But while my video is getting over 1K on here, it's getting over 8,000,000 views on Facebook and getting reposted all from Alaska to Florida, all the way up to New York, and this was taken in Texas! 100.5 MYfm and KBMT - 12 have also recognized and reposted my vid. My face is being shown all over American, and perhaps will also be shown all over to Japan soon. So anybody that has something bad to say, Fuck You All, I'm going viral," wrote Petoskey.

For the Win notes that the routine has been performed every year since 2002 -- although this is the first time video has surfaced.
