What 🤘 means

Index and pinky raised, thumb tucked: the rock and metal salute. 🤘 means "rock on," "let's go," or "hell yeah."

Concerts, festivals, guitar solos and any win worth celebrating with loud energy get a 🤘. Texas Longhorns fans use it as "hook 'em horns."

In parts of Italy, Spain and Latin America the gesture tells someone that their partner is cheating on them. Do not confuse it with 🤟.
