An Incarnate Word Receiver Had One of the Coolest Celebrations Ever and the Ref Who Flagged It Belongs in Prison

Put this official in prison. Or at least county jail. You throw a flag on that and you have to do time behind bars, no question.

So this kid could have brought over three teammates and done a choreographed dance with no issue, but he pulls out one of the best celebrations anyone has ever seen and it's a 15-yard penalty? Cool, I'm sure everyone in the stadium went home happier knowing there was punishment handed out for this egregious act.

I'm completely fine with throwing a flag if a player runs across the field to taunt an opponent or something. But if they're celebrating by themselves or with their own team, don't be a loser as a ref. And then there should be a threshold where if a player does something objectively awesome enough, a penalty is negated no matter what. And this would qualify.

They can take the 15 yards, but they can never take away the touchdown and incredible celly.
