Most Hated Traditions/Customs

[LovelandBuckeye]

I got this idea from the "Prioritize Your Hate List" thread. I thought it was pretty funny someone pointing out the shit Gay as in happy Valley does since way back when in 2005.

1. The players smacking the dumbass we support you banner (TSUN)
2. The players smacking the dumbshit "Play Like A Champion Today" sign (Catholic School of Indiana)
3. Anything Gay, as in happy, Valley does when tOSU comes to town
4. Anything "The Worldwide Leader In Sports" likes (ie. Madison's Jump Around, The Chuckwagon of Oklahoma)


Over/Under on TSUN fan or SEC fan mentioning our use of "THE": 6 posts

1. I don't mind the banner - just watch out for when the opposing team rips the banner down.
2. Meh. I don't mind the Notre Dame thing either.
3. What do they do? Besides the "White Out", which is lame. "Hey - we can all wear the same color clothes. We're scary!"
4. The Jump-Around is pretty lame, too.

My list, in no particular order:
1. Michigan's Marching M. Maybe if they have a full pre-game to recite, they have a whole show. But in Columbus, when they share time with Ohio State's marching band, all they do is march back and forth in that M, playing the same, worn out song. Which reminds me...
2. Whoever coined the Michigan fight song as the "best" ought to be pooped-on. Same with whoever considered their uniforms to be the "best". It's all a matter of opinion, and to claim yours as the best is like saying your farts are smellier than mine. (You're wrong about that, too.)
3. I already mentioned the "White Out" in Penn State. But that isn't as bad as their cheer (shared by Marshall and maybe other teams): "We are!" "Penn State!" Oh yeah. I forgot who this team was. Dummies.
4. Any marching band that runs onto the field, or has flag girls. Or sombreros. Or capes. Or has the "world's largest bass drum".
5. 12th man.
6. Anyone who tries to pass off immediate success over traditional success. (See: University of Cincinnati, 2008-2009)
7. Anyone who tries to pass off success from before cavemen discovered the moon over more recent memory. (See: Michigan and Notre Dame)
8. Billboard wars. Lots of teams do this. Not interesting.
9. Steve Spurrier - I don't mind him so much. I find it funny when people get upset about the things he says. He's just trying to get under your skin, and he's apparently winning. Same goes for Lou Holtz. Yeah, he says retarded things. But who cares?
10. Basically, if you aren't Ohio State, I don't care about your traditions or customs.

I hate that scUM players, coaches and fans get to draw breath.

I think it should be illegal.

 

[Wingate1217]

The Stanford and Cal bands that don't do any real formations but just walk willy-nilly around the field.....:(

 

[buxfan4life]

I hate Michigan. That is all.

Ditto.

By far the lamest HV tradition is the constant (and seemingly random) playing of a cougar being neutered over their damn loudspeakers.

They think it sounds like this:

Every fan from every visiting team hates the endless amount of times that Rocky Top is played at a Tennessee game.

I also hate teams that mark 5 yard lines, 25, 35, 45, etc.

"Go State!"

 

[Bucknut24]

that fucking gator chomp

 

[jwinslow]

Everything Penn State does, because they only do it because someone else made it popular first.

 

[alexhortdog95]

Kansas State has a great tradition. Losing.

Your honor, the state rests...

SWEET!!
I love the way our field looks with the 5 yd lines marked.

Other than LSU who else does this?

 

[Bleed S & G]

In no particular order..

• Wildcat growl
• Jump around was pretty cool when we were there, jingling their keys on kick offs was pretty gay.
• M*ch*g*n's band dancing around/running around like douche bags. I prefer our bands military approach, M*ch*g*n's band looks like clowns out there.
• Boiler Up! Boop - Boop Boiler Up!
• "The Rail"
• USC's fight song being played after a gain of 1
• Pig Sooie or whatever the fuck
• Any team that does the "We are" chant
• Miami's smoke inflatable helmet entrance
• USC horse - wish Woody woulda kicked that asshole off

Only schools that do that are the ones who's fans aren't smart enough to figure out what yardage those lines are otherwise.
