A John Gibbons Farewell Video from @GibbyGIFS

Just like that, the John Gibbons era in Toronto is nearly over. The Blue Jays finally confirmed what everyone has known for months; that Gibby won’t continue beyond this year as the team’s manager.

Over the years, he’s been a GIF goldmine and was the inspiration behind the Twitter account @GibbyGIFS. He’s kept me busy the last few years chronicling his varied and often animated reactions on the field. The man is a walking GIF machine.

It’s kind of sad to see his time come to an end in Toronto, so to help ease the pain, here’s a Gibbons farewell video courtesy of @GibbyGIFS.

Goodbye and goodnight, Gibby. It was quite the ride and thanks for all the memories!
