When Chris Collinsworth took over the place of legendary broadcaster John Madden, fans weren’t sure how to take the news. Madden had such a recognizable voice and manner, and while fans knew that it had to come to an end at some point, you knew Collinsworth would have to go through the gauntlet before he became familiar with the fans.

Anyway, onto the most hilarious trackable nuance, one that we look forward to week after week.
The Chris Collinsworth SLIDE!

It was even the source used for this edited video, originally of England fans cheering Harry Kane’s free kick goal during the World Cup semi-finals.
This tradition had better never end.
