What is the Griddy and why did Christian Pulisic do the NFL celebration?
CHRISTIAN PULISIC performed the Griddy celebration after scoring Chelsea's second in their 2-0 win Champions League win over Lille last night.
But the American star was advised to 'never Griddy again' having poorly executed the dance.
What is the Griddy?
The Griddy dance was invented by NFL superstar Allen Davis but surfaced in 2019 courtesy of his Louisiana State University teammate Justin Jefferson.
Jefferson publicised the rhythmic move during a match-up vs Texas when the wide-receiver exploded for 163 yards before completing a touchdown.
Davis used the Nae Nae hype in 2010 as inspiration and decided that he wanted to create his own dance for the world to see.
It was first spotted on Davis' friends snapchat and by the following morning, viewers of the video would copy the dance and send it back to his account.
Why did Christian Pulisic do it?
Christian Pulisic is American which is where the Griddy dance originally went viral.
It is predominantly seen as a way to celebrate a touchdown in NFL but the Blues talisman decided to do the dance when he doubled Chelsea's lead against Lille instead.
However fans on Twitter weren't too impressed with Pulisic' techinque and called it one of the 'worst' they have ever seen.
One fan said: "That was genuinely the worst Griddy i’ve ever seen."
Another said: "Love you Pulisic but never Griddy again."
