It’s Official: Amon-Ra St. Brown’s Touchdown Celebration Is Now Breakfast History
It’s not every day that a touchdown celebration lands someone on a cereal box—but Amon-Ra St. Brown isn’t just anyone.
The spark behind the viral moment actually started in a quiet FCS game—one that most football fans probably never even noticed. During a November matchup, Jalen Walthall hauled in a 50-yard touchdown and celebrated with an unforgettable move: a flawless headstand, helmet still on, inspired by Stomp the Yard. He was flagged for it, of course, because fun in football often comes at a cost—but that didn’t stop the internet from falling in love with the stunt.
The clip caught fire, and St. Brown took notice. He promised that if he scored the next Sunday, he’d pay tribute to Walthall’s celebration. Sure enough, during the Lions’ game against the Packers, he found the end zone—and delivered on his word with his own headstand celebration.
Yes, Falcons wideout Drake London technically got there first that day, but fans were quick to point out that his form wasn’t quite as polished.
Now, St. Brown’s version of the headstand isn’t just a viral memory—it’s a cultural moment.
In a new partnership with General Mills, the Lions star will appear on boxes of Honey Nut Cheerios this fall. Not just any photo either—it features his iconic headstand reimagined as the “Honey Handstand” in a cereal-inspired uniform. It’s a nod to the fun, flair, and creativity that made the celebration special in the first place.
“Growing up, I never would have thought I’d be on a cereal box, and I had a blast recreating my headstand for Honey Nut Cheerios — the OG cereal for me,” St. Brown shared.
Being on a cereal box is a big deal for any athlete—it’s more than an honor; it’s a pop culture milestone. And St. Brown’s celebration-turned-sensation now joins that legacy.
He’s not the only NFL receiver stepping into breakfast fame—Justin Jefferson and Ja’Marr Chase will also appear on boxes of Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Lucky Charms.
What began as a spontaneous shout-out to a viral moment has now evolved into something bigger. Amon-Ra turned a single touchdown into a headstand, a headline, and now a historic cereal box appearance.
Not bad for a Sunday celebration.
