    The Chive has hundreds of these, and I love all of them.

    Still a d-bag move, but it is funny.

    I love a good photobomb as much as the next guy but it's at its best when it's unintentional, a la Clinton. A Packers fan flipping off the camera behind two posing Vikings fans just doesn't scream "funny."

    Me, another baseball writer and a major league umpire were about to leave the Grand Hyatt in New York when two Japanese couples were setting up for a photo in front of this wall-of-water fountain near one of the entrances. The other baseball writer volunteers to take the photo so both couples can be in it.
    So now these lovely Japanese couples have a beautiful remembrance of their New York vacation with Bruce Froemming acting like an idiot in the background.

    Bruce Froemming behaving like an idiot. Imagine that.

    I never heard the term photobomb until the Clinton headlines, but Rich Hall was doing this on SNL 30 years ago.

    There was an "NFL Films Presents" piece last season about Aaron Rodgers' habit of photobombing. The Packers have a team photographer who takes a picture of the captains for every home game. Rodgers started photobombing them during his rookie season, and it's become a choreographed performance since he's become the starter. They actually set stuff up now and wait until he's ready before they snap the picture.

    There are websites for Rodgers photobombing: https://www.google.com/search?q=aaron+rodgers+photobomb&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&client=safari

    YouTube clips, too. But if they're setting up the shots now, that's not photobombing.

    Actually, that's pretty lame. More like: "I'm extending my brand recognition."

    In the old days when people had video cameras on vacations, I liked to do a big, goofy smile and wave at their cameras. Especially if they were on a tour bus just driving by where I was standing.
