We all misread social cues. It’s part of the human experience to be awkward, after all. Unfortunately, Josh Harris’ awkward blunder was broadcast to the wider sports world and was instantly turned into a meme.
During a preseason Monday Night Football game, new Washington Commanders owner Harris took to the broadcast booth to hang out with Joe Buck and Troy Aikman during the team’s contest against the Baltimore Ravens. During his visit to the booth, Harris randomly shook Buck’s hand as the broadcaster was gesticulating, causing an awkward moment as no one acknowledged the gaffe.
