Student: Is that the score board? (points to the scoreboard) Crowd: Yes that's the scoreboard (points to the scoreboard) Student: Is that the winning side? (points to home fans) Crowd: Yes thats the winning side! (points to home fans) Student: Is that the Losing side? (pointing to away fans) Crowd: Yes thats the losing side! (pointing to away fans) Student: Is that the exit door? (points to exit) Crowd: Yes that's the exit door (points to exit) Student: Scoreboard (pointing continues...) Crowd: Scoreboard Student: Winning Side Crowd: Winning Side Student: Losing Side Crowd: Losing Side Student: Exit Door Crowd: Exit Door we then finished with "na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye" As far as I know it got banned a few years later because parents gave complaints to athletic directors but it was incredibly popular for about 8 years.

One of my teammates then is now the OC at Central HS. I guess they figured it would be funny to pull that play against me. In years past we always tried to come up with bizarre extra point plays. We ran one with the ball being flipped over the head with the QB's back to the LOS. The QB told me he could throw it like he did in the video. We didn't run it last year. I am now at a rival team and they pulled it out on us. I actually did it myself in a college intramural game. One of my teammates then is now the OC at Central HS.

Or was it a fun thing that just happened in practice and you told the team you were gonna put it in? Maybe I’m not seeing something, but why would you design a behind-the-back pass?

I was the OC at the other school last year. They were having a little fun with me because we attempted the pass in practice but never called it during a game. ESPN Sportsnation was asking if it was unsportsmanlike because they beat us 58-0. The play was run in the first 5 minutes of the contest. The QB is a great kid with a bright future. It was a designed play not spur of the moment by the QB. I was the Head Coach of the opposing team for the behind the back pass. I was the OC at the other school last year.
