The Colin Kaepernick craze has officially hit new heights.
On Tuesday the San Francisco 49ers quarterback met First Lady Michelle Obama and they two hit it off so well they were “kaepernicking” in no time at all. After meeting the first Lady at the White House, Kaepernick sent out Instagram photos of the two engaging his trademark celebration move of kissing his right bicep.
According to NBC Bay Area News, Kaepernick began the back in the divisional round of the NFC playoffs when the 49ers downed the Green Bay Packers. The 25-year-old Turlock, Calif. native has already trademarked the pose.
Kaepernick’s antics seemingly have replaced the Tim Tebow craze of Tebowing as the nation’s latest athletic meme. After being inserted as the 49ers starter around mid-season, in just 13 games Kaepernick threw for over 1,800 yards and ran for over 400. He also managed to lead San Francisco to the brink of a Super Bowl title, eventually losing to the Baltimore Ravens, 34-31.
And yet Kaepernick might want to tread judiciously, be careful of all the added attention he seems to be asking for. After, Tebow is now out of the league and without a job.
