ManningFace refers to a tight-cropped, low-resolution photograph of former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning during a Denver Broncos practice in 2013. He is seen wearing a black cold-weather hoodie and a navy blue beanie, looking directly into the camera with a neutral but slightly humorous expression. The image gained notoriety on Reddit's /r/NFL community as a bait-and-switch link, similar to the Rickroll, where users would expect to see a highlight reel or breaking news but instead click a hyperlink leading to this specific Manning photo. It has since become one of the most enduring inside jokes in sports internet culture, used to prank unsuspecting fans across all social media platforms.
