First there was Tebowing — and now there’s Te’oing.
Social-media users poked fun at Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te’o’s fabricated girlfriend by posting pics of themselves posing with phantom sweethearts.
The meme was dubbed “Te’oing” — echoing the one-time “Tebowing” craze, in which people mimicked Jets quarterback Tim Tebow’s on-field prayer pose.
“Just proposed to my girlfriend,” Shaun Boylan, a k a @TheGiantInMe, tweeted, along with a photo of himself kneeling in front of empty air.
The trend blew up yesterday, with a flurry of users posting solo poses hashtagged “#teoing.” More at The New York Post
