‘New York Bozo’ is the new ‘Omaha’; Aaron Rodgers’ weird cadence
By Mike Dyce
Instead of “Omaha,” Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers likes to yell “New York Bozo.”
The Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys are squaring off in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs on Sunday. When Aaron Rodgers stepped to the line he decided to call an audible and the cameras caught what he was yelling loud and clear.
And it sounded a whole lot like “New York Bozo.”
And watch closely to Cowboys defensive back J.J. Wilcox.
Underrated part of this is JJ Wilcox responding by fake popping open a 40. RT @FanSidedGIF: VINE - New York Bozo https://t.co/dAo8oZEqWl

If you were curious, this is the official hierarchy of calls at the line of scrimmage.
53 is the Mike > New York Bozo > Omaha > Kill Kill Kill

The call got a lot of people’s attention and has quickly become a talking point of the game, leading to some interesting questions and jokes.
The Packers strike first. Still no word on who is "New York Bozo".

There's a New York Bozo on the field and a New Jersey Bozo in the suite with Jerry Jones

No later than fourth postgame question to Rodgers: What or who is the inspiration for 'New York bozo'?
