It's entirely possible that Memphis tight end Alan Cross is excited to be playing in the Miami Beach Bowl.
How do we know?
ESPN's cameras (via Reddit) caught Cross head-butting his teammates moments before kickoff against BYU on Monday at Marlins Park.
Marlins Park has seen plenty of home runs over the years, but not many head-butts. That's probably for the best.
No explanation was given for the odd display, so we'll have to assume Cross grew up rooting for Kevin Garnett.
Unfortunately for Cross, pregame enthusiasm can come at a price. Check out the gash on his forehead (h/t BroBible). That might require some medical attention.
Cross played through the self-inflicted wound and finished with three catches for 69 yards and a touchdown in a 55-48 win over BYU.
Let Cross' misguided pregame ritual be a reminder to always wear a helmet when head-butting. That said, an equally compelling argument could be made that head-butting should be done away with altogether.
Seriously, what happened to good old-fashioned high-fiving?
