By now you’ve probably seen this amazing goal celebration put on by an Icelandic soccer team:

I don’t think there’s much debate, its the best goal celebration ever. In honor of such a great moment in sports history I thought I’d compile a list of some of my all time favorite goal/ touchdown celebrations. Enjoy:

• The Winnipeg Blue Bombers give us a flash-back to kindergarten with a li’l duck, duck, goose:

• What Canucks fan doesn’t love this one from Tiger Williams:

• Teemu Selanne practices his skeet shooting:

• Chad Ochocinco has numerous memorable celebrations. Riverdancing, taking control of the on-field camera, giving the football CPR, putting with the endzone marker, cheerleader proposal…. most of them are in this compilation video:

• Chad’s new teammate Terrell Owens also has a laundry list of great TD celebrations. My favorite (as a biased 49ers fan) is the disrespect he showed the Cowboys by running the the mid field Star not once, but twice during one of their games:

• This Owens compilation has the rest of his celebrations (poms poms, the Sharpie, the popcorn, Raw Lewis impersonation, etc):

• This one might just be my favorite. Not only is the celebration the most ridiculous thing ever, but the score at the end of the video is epic. (Not entirely sure this one is real):

• One for Team CoCo. David Anderson does the ‘string dance intro’:

• The Hamilton Tigercats go all “I’m on a boat!”

• Back when I used to be able to watch an entire baseball game on TV – Joe Carter’s run around the bases after hitting the ’93 World Series winning home run is forever etched in my mind:

• Jumping back to hockey, a memorable one from Theo Fleury:

• Can’t leave basketball out. Maybe this isn’t a ‘celebration’, but Iverson walking all over Lue (literally) in the ’91 finals was priceless:

• This one is a celebration FAIL but couldn’t be left out. After rushing for a touchdown, Winnipeg QB Kerwin Bell spikes the ball and sacks himself, get knocked over by the player he’s taunting, and then gets penalized for taunting. I’ve watched this clip 10+ times and it doesn’t get any less funny:

• And just for good measure, here’s ESPN’s Top Ten premature celebrations:

Have I missed any good ones?
