Who had the “Ring Around the Rosie” dance in an NFL game on their 2023 bingo card?
Yes, you read that right.
During the Kansas City Chiefs-Las Vegas Raiders Week 18 matchup on Saturday, the Chiefs’ offense huddled with the “Ring Around the Rosie” dance before lining up in a wildcat formation.
The play actually resulted in a touchdown initially, with Jerick McKinnon receiving the snap.
McKinnon then rolled right and one-hand tossed the ball to Patrick Mahomes, who lined up as the running back, and swung it back the other way on a screen to wideout Kadarius Toney.
Toney evaded one defender before reaching the left edge of the endzone for the score, but a holding penalty erased what would’ve been a hilarious moment.
It ultimately didn’t matter, as Toney reached the same part of the endzone on an end-around handoff on the ensuing play.
Kansas City danced to a commanding 24-3 lead at halftime, and now needs to maintain it to secure the AFC’s No. 1 seed.
