Is this legal? Is it the right way to play (trick) it??? We can actually do that?

I'm no expert in American football rules, but it looks quite clever.

Actually looks like it would be legal. There is no rule saying you must run if you have the ball. He walked, they ignored him until he started bolting.

From the very little bit of research that I did, I would have to say that it's a legal play. I've never seen a snap not go through the center's legs.. but it seems only Canadian football has that as an actual requirement of the snap. I never knew that.

Guess the opposing team there didn't know that either, so they didn't know what was going on.. especially since every member of the other team was still 'set'.. save for the quarterback, who was just kinda casually strolling along with the football.
