Somebody has to know. What is this celebration? Meaning? Origin?

I don't know but someone got a PF in one of the games Saturday for doing the exact same thing after catching a TD. I thought maybe he did it in the CB face and it was taunting but the announcers said it was for simulating shooting.

I'm too old to care what it means. Most of the time when I figure it out I wished I didn't know.

It looks a little like a DJ scratching records on a turntable.

K1 said it’s something his brother used to do in high school and he’s started copying it. Go listen to his post game press conference from after the Missouri game (not the on field interview).
Yep. I didn't fully understand it, but his brother told him where they come from is like all kinds of creatures in the water and crabs on the shore. Don't come in the water. It basically means 17 you, you can't handle this sh*t. All the kids in high school are doing it now. K1 is nationwide baby!

It’s literally the same hand sign me and a group of friends since middle school use all the time. I’m considering lawyering up.***

Sometimes kids do dumb stuff just for fun. ..Not me, per se, but I heard others did…

(Maybe) Fact:

The Mizzou player got the penalty because he was clearly mocking State’s celebration. Or because he was simulating shooting a gun. My leaning goes to the former, but the announcers may have mentioned the gun simulation.

Mizzou players were definitely douchebags. Luke Work jawing all night, the mocking KT1, and best of all, during the "sweet dreams" jamfest between the third and fourth quarters, most of them on the sidelines were mocking the cowbells and showing their 4sses.

The flight home must've really sucked.

It looks like what SEAL and Green Beret operators and SWAT members do to simulate holding a weapon when they are running micro-drills without all their gear. So I was thinking they are acting like they are shooting a gun and "chopping people down."

ETA just noticed the ring finger turned down. Don't know what that is 🤷🏽. I'm confused now.

I saw a guy earlier in the day get a penalty but it didn’t look like the same thing to me. It legit looked like he was simulating a gun

They have been loud mouthed since they joined the league. They thought they were something else winning the worst east in history a couple times. Drink leans into it and makes it worse.

I hope they bussed home and broke down in Blytheville

I think it was pretty clear that the MO player was doing it to taunt KT/our team, thus the flag.
