My freshman year at Pittsburgh State, I was playing pick-up football with the guys in front of the dorms. We had a game nearly every afternoon before heading into the dining hall for some grub later on.

Anyways, we've been playing for an hour or more and we were getting ready to quit when I suggested we run a fake punt. The game was tied and my teammates didn't really care if we won or not, but it was obvious the other team wanted to win badly, so I figured we'd "punt" it to the other team. None of them believed it would work when I said just let everyone through to block it. So, they did. Everyone came running through to block the punt and I faked the kick right at the perfect moment. Ran nearly untouched for twenty yards before the only person to beat was the punt returner- pulled a move on him and ran into the endzone.

Nothing that anyone hasn't done before. But, the coolest thing was when we were all walking to the dining hall, some guy came up to me and asked to speak to me. He was one of the coaches for the university football team. He said he liked what he saw in me and asked if I would try out for Pittsburgh State as a walk-on. I said, "No thanks" and went to go eat.
