New York Giants rookie Kavyon Thibodeau is not a very popular man in Indiana right now.
The edge rusher, a top-five pick in last year’s draft, has had a good first season in the NFL and the Giants have improved significantly since drafting him. He would record his fourth sack of the season against Indianapolis Colts quarterback Nick Foles on Sunday.
The hit was a hard one and left Foles grounded and injured, yet Thibodeau continued with his snow angel celebration all while Colts staff were rushing to Foles to check on him. He still performed a “go to sleep” celebration after getting up.
Thibodeau later claimed he was unaware that the QB was injured and stopped celebrating once he realized he wasn’t getting up. But did he carry out that specific celebration because he saw it on King of the Hill?
According to a meme, a very believable one at that, the FOX sitcom predicted the whole thing, much in the way The Simpsons has predicted basically everything.

“When you’re doing a celebration, you’re not looking to see who’s doing what,” Thibodeaux explained after Sunday’s game.
Someone needs to quiz him on the King of the Hill theory. If he didn’t execute the celebration because he knew about that particular episode, then… Woah.
