The Griddy Dance originated as a football celebration back in 2019. Allen “Griddy” Davis, a high school football player at the time, devised the move as a playful means to taunt opponents. However, the dance quickly gained traction and evolved into a viral celebration embraced by sports fans worldwide, particularly those fond of EA’s soccer simulator, FC—formerly called FIFA.

In FC 24, you now have the opportunity to perform the Griddy celebration with smoother and more realistic animations. All you need is this guide to teach you the steps.

How to Perform the Griddy Dance in FC 24

You can do the Griddy Dance by pushing the right joystick up twice while holding the right trigger. The formula for this celebration is R2 + Up + Up on PlayStation and RT + Up + Up on Xbox. On PC, the combination is Right + Left while holding the D button.

  • PlayStation: Hold R2 and press Up twice on the right joystick.
  • Xbox: Hold RT and press Up on the right joystick twice.
  • PC: Hold down the D button and press Left and Right simultaneously.

After scoring a goal, you have a few seconds to move the player. Use this opportunity to get closer to the Goalkeeper or the opposing side’s fans and perform the Griddy Dance in front of them as a taunt.
