Stripper pole? Spider-Man? Whatever it was, NFL did not approve

Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown put on a show in Sunday night's 45-10 victory over the Indianapolis Colts.

In the eyes of the officials on one particular play, too much of a show.

Already with eight catches, 118 yards and a pair of scores on the night -- and with his team up 38-10 -- the Pittsburgh All-Pro took a punt 71 yards to the house, his Steelers record-tying fourth such touchdown in his career.

So the man who just weeks ago crossed the goal line with a running full front flip -- and stuck the landing -- ran through the end zone this time and leapt onto the goal post, legs open, trying to hug it with his arms and legs.

Instead, he scared the security guard behind the posts, then slid down onto his back. And was greeted by teammates, and a 15-yard unsportsmanlike-conduct penalty.

Antonio Brown can do it all. This includes putting Pat McAfee on skates en route to a 71-yard punt return TD. https://t.co/mM49sFLARg

Brown may have been penalized in the game, but he was trending on social media and seemingly before his butt hit the ground (which, by the way, was not part of the plan).

"I was feeling excitement and trying to stick it at the goal post, but it didn't work out," Brown told NBC Sports’ Michelle Tafoya after the game.

Not a bad day at the office for the Steel City entertainer.
