Just a finger point? No. But, in the "kids do the darndest things" department, I called a USC on a Pop Warner player (maybe 10 years old). Offense attempts to run a play on 2, one of their lineman and a defensive tackle both move. I've got a false start on the offense. DT stands up, points at the o-lineman, and goes "HA! HA! HA!" at the top of his lungs.

It was almost comical, but it still cost his team 15 yards.
