GIF: Canadian Football Team Scores First Touchdown at Home Off of Pooch Punt

The Canadian Football League for the most part plays the game just like the NFL and college football in the United States with a few differences. One of them the league's newest franchise--the Ottawa Redblacks--used to score their first home-field touchdown in the history of the franchise.

A pooch punt.

According to the rule, as long as the player is behind the punter when he makes his kick he can race down the field and recover the ball without the opposing team having to touch it first.

This is just the second home game for the Redblacks. The first they won thanks to six field goals (18-17).

As much as I hate all the rule changes that the NFL makes every year if they really want to make one that could be interesting and exciting for the game this one would be pretty cool.
