1. The famous cigar photo/video
This is the ultimate Joe Burrow moment.
After beating Clemson in the national championship game in early 2020, Burrow strolled into the locker room with a cigar. It’s a scene we’ve seen plenty of times from various athletes.
Only Burrow, however, managed to turn it into one of the most iconic sports photos/gifs/videos of all time.

It does not get any cooler than Burrow in that moment. If anyone else tried to do that it would come across as obnoxious or “fake”. But coming from Burrow, it was authentic. And legendary.
By the way, Burrow had another cigar moment recently when the Bengals clinched the AFC North division title.
And it included his former LSU teammate Ja’Marr Chase.
Stop me if you’ve heard this before:

Burrow is only in his second season in the NFL and he already has enough swaggy moments to last a career.
I can’t wait to see what else Burrow has in store for us in the coming years.
