I'm fired up as fugg for the 2012 NY Jets season to get underway! I even took Monday of next week off, so I can drink 100 beers on Sunday, and not have to worry about a Monday morning hangover. So, my NFL cronies and I here in Athens, GA love getting ferdoogled and coming up with the most obnoxious and/or bizarre celebrations when our teams score. I've been working on some new ones, as well as revamping some old classics to reflect roster changes and the like -- The Baby Curtis: Ah, this one has definitely turned a few heads -- great for big run gains, 1st downs, and of course TDs. When Curtis Martin would have a huge play, I would pantomime holding a fully grown man in my arms. I would rock him to sleep, while softly kissing his forehead, and whispering J-E-T-S Jets jets jets. The Air Strike: This one is a team effort, have a friend climb on your back with two handfuls of tortilla chips (or whatever's handy), and stick his arms out Jet style -- now run around the bar making loud airplane noises, and have the piggy-backing friend "bomb" the tables with the tortilla chips -- bonus points if the people sitting at the tables are wearing jersies of the opposing team. The Sanchez Salsa Verde Carpet Bomb In honor of Mark Sanchez' Mexican heritage, when he throws a touchdown pass, start out with the classic Jets chant -- but on the third "JETS!" hurl a cup of green salsa into the ceiling fan (make sure it's on high setting). If performed correctly, all your friends in the bar will be wearing some Jets Green! Bueno! Now sometimes our beloved Jets don't always play so well -- that doesn't mean you can't still have a good time watching them. The Suzy Namath: Get as drunk as possible, and then awkwardly try to make out with your friends. While they politely rebuff your drunken advances, repeatedly slur that you could care less about the Jets, and that you just wanna kiss them. The Crotch Barf: Pretty self explanatory, throw up into your own lap. But then, jump to your feet and spin around rapidly. The centrifugal force should cause the crotch barf to splash all present. That should remind them that rooting for the Jets is always in their best interests! If you have any unique Jets celebrations, feel free to share! Here's to another season, and Go Jets! :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:
I don't know what to make of this...if I could even scratch the surface of something that could compete with this list, I'd contribute. Alas, this is in a league of it's own.
The Here Pussy Pussy - Jump out of chair and kick the cat as far as possible. Can be used for good or bad plays.
My buddies and I always do the 'Chad Pennington first down strike' which I find hiliarious. When he was our QB, he dove for a first down once, and out of nowhere stuck his arm out a bunch of times indicating a first down. The fact that it was Chad, coupled with him scrambling for yards, and the way he did it always cracked me and my buddies up, so we continue to do it till this day.
That was one of my ALL-TIME favorite/hilarious Jets moments. Chad was so clumsy, it almost looked like he was fencing.
TEBOW THUNDER is one of my favorites...anytime someone in the bar attempts to 'TEBOW' just run over and drop kick him in the side of his head (the person's eyes are usually closed so this is easy to do). Then stand over the smitten fan and do the Jets chant! Everyone love this one. :beer:
I remember the chad fencing first down. Cracked me up. I usually do a sporano-esque fist pump when the Jets score against the pats.
I love it. It reminds of a few other ones I liked to do during the height of the "Tebowing" craze last year. Mana From Heaven: Whenever you see someone "Teblowing", unscrew a salt shaker and pour it's entire contents into their hair. Teblow Tubthumping: Whenever you see someone "Teblowing", run up to them and yell "Allahu Akbar!", then thump them in their fist to forehead with a hardbound Koran. If you don't own a physical copy of the Koran, use a Kindle preloaded with 30,000 copies of the Koran.
If you go down that list of five distinct celebrations, and you use them for TD's only, they should last you all season. Sorry, I couldn't help it with all the talk about how inept the offense is.
Jets fans wonder why people hate us. Throw green salsa into a ceiling fan, really? If preformed correctly all of your friends at the bar should be kicked out and heading behind bars to make new friends. Don't drop the soap. It's called a high five, chest bump, fist pump, J E T S chant and maybe a Bart Scott form landing. :up:
