Gator Chomp

The Gator Chomp is a nationally recognized gesture made by fans of the University of Florida to show their support of the Florida Gators. The Gator Chomp is done by fully extending ones arms, one over the other, in front of the body with the palms facing each other. The arms are then moved apart and together to symbolize an alligators mouth. The Gator Chomp is often accompanied by the cheer "It's Great to be a Florida Gator!" This gesture is often used as a way to jeer opposing players and fans.
