This may be a stupid question...

Are we sure it's not someone trying to do the handsign but not having the physical dexterity to do it? :D

Ooo!!

Maybe this organization?

That's a really ignorant comment.

Back to the topic: It looks like it could be a sign in reverse. Let me think about this one a little bit more.

It might be Tau Phi Sigma. It's a multicultural fraternity but has a lot of latinos.

Agree with the ignorant comment.

But thanks for your help, is doing signs in reverse a common thing amongst fraternities?

Zchi and L.O.C.K., I looked at the hand signs of those organizations and they look similar but not an exact match. Zchi, Tau Phi Sigma seems to be a midwest organization, these guys are from out here in the New York/New Jersey area...doesnt mean they can't be a part of it though. :D

I was thinking that maybe the picture is somehow reversed. I've seen that happen lately especially if a person is using a camera phone. Or, it could be a new member who hasn't yet...been educated on proper use of his hand signal. I've seen that happen too, over the years.

It looks like a one-handed version of my sorority's (Delta Xi Phi Multicultural Sorority) handsign.

This picture shows the one-hand & two-hand.

I dunno if you ever found out, but it looks like a Phi Iota Alpha sign...

Phi Iota Alpha's sign doesn't really look like it...see the picture on the article below:

yeah, it does look different... i dunno it could be any number of orgs. I mean, there are only so many things you can do with your hands, and with more and more orgs that have hand signs, they're definitely going to overlap.
