New Sports Chants

An alarming trend I've noticed recently, whether it's college games on TV or high school student sections in our area, is a group singing of the main riff to "Seven Nation Army." This needs to stop.

 

The alarming trend that I've noticed is that every high school and community college I cover has a group of four or five douchenozzles (plus some random girl. Always exactly one for some reason, no more or less) who think they are the Crazies.

If there are a lot of you and it's clever, it's pretty cool and funny.

If there's a few of you and you aren't, it's just excruciating. STFU.

 

I can't believe this thread is destined for at least three pages.

 

The first time I heard this was at the Miami @ Ohio State football game this past year.

 

Texas A&M student section taunting an African-American assistant coach from the visiting team:

"Sit down, bus driver!"

 

I remember going to a Beanpot game this year, and it was between Boston College (a Catholic school) and Boston University. The BU goalie gave up an easy goal, and you could hear the BC fan section chanting: "Jesus Loves You!" at the goalie.

 

Many moons ago at a high school girls game, as a plain-looking girl prepared to shoot a free throw:

"Two, four, six, nine... look at the dike at the line!"

Fortunately, the home team's head coach asked the referees to hold the action after her free throw barely grazed iron and grabbed the PA mic. He threatened if he heard anything like that again, he was asking the referees to call a technical foul -- on his team.

Pretty classy.

 

Wasn't so long ago the fine folks at Pepsi were trying to coerce us all into chanting "Eh! Oh! Canada go!" during world junior hockey games. #Epicfail would be an epic understatement.
