Some people just know how to celebrate a win and have fun while doing it. A Southampton fan has captured hearts with his dancing moves after his team won against West Bromwich and entered the Championship play-off final, per Indy100. The video was posted on X by @nick_metcalfe. The fan had gained fame in 2019 for his dance to the song "Firestarter" which was played as a tribute to Keith Flint after he passed by. He has again made headlines with his dance this year during the play-off semi-final on Thursday, May 16.

He could be seen moving his hands sideways and then up, it looked like his happy dance for his team. He was dancing “like nobody’s watching” according to a comment on the social media post during Sky Sports' coverage. Another moment that caught the attention of the people was a fan who took off his prosthetic leg to celebrate one of the goals made by Southampton. The Sky posted that clip and captioned it, “Limbs.”



 

The game which took place at St.Mary’s was at a score of 0-0 during the first leg of the game. The first half of the second leg also went by without any goals from either team. However, things changed in the second leg with four goals. Three of these goals were made by the Southampton team. This victory led them into the play-off final that happened against Leeds United at Wembley on May 26. Southampton also won the play-off final with one goal made by Adam Armstrong. They were immediately promoted to the Premier League.

People on X were delighted to watch the man break into a joyful dance to celebrate this victory. The video posted garnered 1.5 million views and is captioned, "'I bet you went mad tonight.' 'Nah, I was pretty low key really. One more big game to play. It’s important not to peak too early.’" @MKnelmes commented, "It’s great that football means so much to people." @McEwen1171 wrote, "Legend has returned." @_J_enkins said, "Those Southampton fans were wild. All credit to them for it." @letmeseethatkaz said, "You say that but when they scored their first the camera went to a member of the crowd who had taken his prosthetic leg off and was waving it above his head. So this is very much low-key in comparison."



 

Dancing is not only to celebrate victories but also to release stress and enjoy life. Ali Hoffman shared a video on her Instagram of her dancing with her father in the kitchen. The song that the duo dance on is the starting piano riff at the start of Jess Glynne's song, "Hold My Hand." Her dad's moves are hilarious and the whole video will make anyone want to dance. At one moment in the video, the mother also joins in with her daughter and husband. The three of them could be seen dancing their heart out. People loved the father-daughter dance. @jahnmarieparise commented, "Just saw this again and I'm dying laughing all over again. Your dad! His face totally makes it." @raggideaeann wrote, "How is this the first time I've seen this? This made my dad. You and your dad are a great team."
