Tonight, after over a full day of wonderful nominations from the ODB Commentariat, we're opening the Official Nick Pants Gif Challenge. With a poll of over 270 now whittled down to 25, we can finally determine our favorite Nick Pants Gifs from this year. Thankfully, several nominations put up the same gifs, so we're not still overwhelmed by sheer numbers.
Because there's not a really great way to do this within the SB Nation system and I wasn't totally crazy about just doing a straight vote to choose one from so many, I got a little bit of outside help to make a poll that allows you to choose your five favorites. That means the top 5 vote getters here will be the five official favorites of the ODB community. Look in amazement at the gifs below and then choose wisely, my friends.
CHOOSE FIVE!
1. Case Closed
2. Blurred Lines
3. BlackOUt
4. KJ Rockets
5. Complete Flaming Car
6. SOOUN
7. Linwood hits the JukeStick
8. Lache Dancin'
9. FringeMonster
10. Fatal Exception
11. Breaking Tarp
12. Briles McDuck
13. HexTex
14. DragonBriles Z
15. Say Hello to My Little Friend
16. KJ Negs Shepard
17. Petty Trolls Patterson
18. The Stumble
