Yes, none of the things you listed put fans and players in jeopardy. The rules for “Gathering at the paw’ need to be enforced or it needs to be stopped. Period. They won’t even fill up the hill anymore but they allow that nonsense.

Take your teeth put and go back to bed gramps, you woke up crabby or you're a coot or likely both.

Just saying...

Asking for a friend.

Actually

Misspelt, while a bit archaic and/or Brtish-y, is not incorrect. Why am I pointing this out? No idea, haha.

But, can’t the kids wait for 30 seconds after the game is over? Remember we have Cal and Stanford in the conference next year!

Shut up you loser. Meeting at the paw is something a lot older and more important than you. It was a classy move by Dabo, but he messed up everyone by not doing it a play sooner.

LMAO. It's "Gathering at the Paw" and it didn't start until 2003. Things only 20 years old aren't a tradition. That wasn't GATP that was rushing before the game was over and the visiting team exited. Embarrassing our fans don't know how to act.

Funny, I remember doing it in the early 80's. I think that's a few minutes more than 20 years.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I do too

In fact last time I went into the field, I'm sure Danny was still the coach.

They may have just started calling it Gathering at the Paw in 2003, but it's been going on a long time before.

It started long before 2003.

maybe it only started being called that in 2003

I know for a fact it was happening in the 70s. Ot just wasn't as big or shown on TV as much. DV only held about 53,000 (including the hill) back then.

Here's a DV fact for the youngsters. 3 current defending National Champions have come to DV and their record is 0 - 3.

Not true.

Did it at my first game in the early 90s.

Even though it's definitely been going on longer than since 2003. 20 years is definitely long enough to call something a tradition.

Sorry, don't know what you are talking about. I was going on the field in the 50's and 60's when I was a kid asking players for chin straps. They just changed the name to "gathering at the paw" ...... not the tradition.
