Cam Ward stole his touchdown celebration from Western Kentucky. Don’t get it twisted!

The starting quarterback for the Miami Hurricanes and Heisman Trophy candidate does not deserve credit for the celebration that has completely taken over the sports world in the last few weeks.

To be fair, Ward is the first to admit that it is not his own. He is not trying to play it off as something he came up with. He is not trying to claim that the celebration is original.

For those who are not familiar, Ward holds his left hand over his mouth, extends his right arm out in front of him, and shakes his hand upside down after he or one of his receivers finds the end zone.

It has quickly emerged as one of the most popular celebrations in college football. Players, even on the high school and professional levels, are mimicking the Hurricanes’ quarterback after big plays.
