Before the pull, the throwing team verbally taunts the other team, going so far as to present bare body parts as they see fit.
The pull goes downfield and the offense dutifully proceeds downfield.
The defense remains motionless with a steely determination. The offense is momentarily unaware of the chaos which is about to ensue.
Sensing the team's anxiety to run out and defend, #4 commands his team to HOLD! The offense is now aware something is not quite right but continues their charge.
The offense, stunned by the lack of movement from the defense, takes a big gain from #4 to #5. The defensive commander again tells his team to HOLD!
The offense makes one pass, wondering when the onslaught will come. The defense is now worked up into a frenzy, barely held by the cry of HOLD!
Finally the fury of the defense is unleashed with a might battle cry of NOW! The defense charges in unison downfield ready to decapitate the offense. The offensive charge momentarily stalls admist the chaos.
Finally the offense in a state of sheer panic makes an ill-advised throw! Turnover!
