Traditions Following Touchdowns

November 2nd 2006

Q. Many teams cheerleaders do push-ups following their football team’s touchdown. What else do teams do to celebrate a touchdown?
 
A. There are many traditions and rituals teams have following a football team’s touchdown.
 
Three of them include the ROTC firing a canon from the field; fireworks; and cheerleaders running up and down the field behind the goal posts with large flags that feature the team’s logo.
 
I watched the Clemson-Virginia Tech football game last week, and when Tech scored, its mascot had weights and a weight bench on the sidelines, and bench-pressed the number of points the Hokies had scored to that point.
