In recent years, it has become a phenomenon to congratulate or acknowledge one's presence by saying Yes and then their last name. Usually done by those who partake in the same sport. However, let it be known that if someone does something particularly daring or out of the ordinary, one may say Yes (last name) to them to let them know that they appreciate what they have done/are wearing. *Note: Never switch yes with yea or any other variant of the word "yes."
Examples of Yes (last name):
1. (Johnny Smith walks into class)
Fred: Yes Smith!
2. (Johnny Smith scores a goal in soccer)
Fred: Yes Smith!
3. (Johnny Smith wears Kanye glasses and a pink shirt to school)
Fred: Yes Smith!
