The Scripps National Spelling Bee ended in a tie for the third year in a row. The two winners were Nihar Janga and Jairam Hathwar. Since both competitors couldn't put one another away during the championship rounds, the competition was declared a tie. But the real story is that Janga is a big fan of Dallas Cowboys wide reciever Dez Bryant, so when it was announced that he was one of the winners, he threw up the "X" that Bryant does when he scores a touchdown.

Dez Bryant responded on his Twitter after he saw Janga's celebration.
