WEBBY 5-word Acceptance Speech

So . . . when (not "if") Rhett and Link win this WEBBY Award they can choose to accept it in person at the awards ceremony to be held on Monday, May 19th 2014 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.

The winners can make an acceptance speech which is limited to only

FIVE WORDS!

How would you suggest the dynamic duo take and own this moment in the spotlight?

Here are just a few of the notable speeches from last year:

My suggestion:

R&L saunter out onto the stage, pausing to wave to the crowd, perhaps take a bow or two . . . Rhett stands on the left with a guitar . . . Link stands on the right and accepts the trophy from the presenter . . . and they Rhett strikes a single chord as they shout out, in unison with perpect pitch and mythical harmony . . .

NILLA WAFER TOP HAT TIME!
