Weezer fans, in the band's early touring days, were known to flash a "W" during shows as a tribute to their heroes - almost as much as applause.  This is achieved by touching the tips of one's thumbs at an approximate 90 degree angle, and pointing the index fingers outward at 90 degree angles, to form a W.  In the years since the band's triumphant return to form in 2000, this tribute evolved to include one's middle fingers also pointing outward, parallel to the index fingers, in an effort to simulate the wings of the Flying =W=.
