EA Sports FC 24: How to Do the Griddy Celebration

by Fernando Diaz / Articles, EA Sports FC 24 / 11 Jul 2023

What Is “The Griddy”?

So what is this hype all about? “The Griddy” is this bomb dance move that first took the world by storm when it hit the NFL scene as a touchdown celebration in 2020. It quickly became a regular feature in the sport, and by 2022, it had caught on like wildfire among soccer players too.

Now, The Griddy is a celebration that’s been used by athletes across a bunch of sports. Think of it as the next big thing since the iconic ‘Dab’ routine, Cristiano Ronaldo’s ‘Siu!’ pirouette, or Erling Haaland’s ‘Meditation’ pose. Big names in football like Chelsea and USMNT star Christian Pulisic have been seen hitting The Griddy in games, including a Champions League match against Lille where he dropped it like it’s hot after scoring a goal.

The dance move is a real vibe. You do a sort of skip forward with the back of your heels while swinging your arms back and forth, then you bring your fingers up to your eyes to form a glasses-like shape. It’s a dance originally created by Allen Davis, who’s also known by his nickname ‘Griddy.’ This dude was a high school American football player when he came up with this dance and uploaded it to YouTube. Since then, it’s been popping up in sports, Fortnite, and TikTok videos.

How to Do The Griddy in FC 24:

Alright, here’s the deal – to drop The Griddy in FC 24, you first gotta score a goal. Once you’ve hit the back of the net and you’re ready to throw down some sick moves, here’s how you get your player to do The Griddy:

Hold RT/R2: While your player is in celebration mode, hold down the RT/R2 button.

Double Flick: Use the right thumbstick and flick it upwards twice, quickly.

That’s it!! And, heads up for both console fams – don’t get sidetracked by the prompts on screen. You do you. Stick with these inputs and you’ll be Griddy-ing in no time.

Note for the Nintendo Switch Players: The controls are pretty much the same, just remember the right trigger is ZR on your console…
