About

"Oh Baby, a Triple!" is a memorable quote said by a preadolescent video gamer in a YouTube video after eliminating three enemy players with one shot in an online match of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Since being uploaded online in 2010, the soundbite has been used in many montage parody videos to mock young and obnoxious gamers in online first-person shooters.

Origin

On February 7th, 2010, YouTuber LustruM uploaded in-game footage of a free-for-all match in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare in which a young boy is heard loudly rejoicing after killing three enemy players, who moving in a single file line, with one sniper rifle shot (shown below).

"Oh baby, a triple! Oh yeah! And that was my triple collateral on Free-For-All."

Many viewers claimed the shot was faked since the enemy players did not appear to be attacking each other in the free-for-all mode. The original video no longer exists, but the one above has gained more than 3.9 million views as of September 2015.
