Have you ever been in a situation where you thought you were going to come out on top, but celebrated way too early and ended up with major egg on your face? If you know that sinking, awful feeling… don’t worry. No matter how much you made people cringe or how embarrassed you felt, it happens to a lot of people.
Thanks to good folks at the /r/PrematureCelebrations sub-Reddit, now you can see some of the most cringe-worthy premature celebrations that have ever happened. I’m not sure how these people were ever able to go out in public again.
Yiiiiiiiiiiikes (and that’s an understatement).
