Serious question: Preferred method of showing "School Spirit" in Death Valley??
Aug 4, 2013, 9:18 AM
|
|
Other than being decked in all Orange and yelling our fool heads off from whistle to whistle:
Do any of you wave orange towels, facepaint orange, use vintage "tiget rags", etc..??
Would the "man card" be pulled for using an official Orange/Purple pom pom up in the stands???
I want Death Valley to be deathly CRAZY on Aug 31st!!!
I will undoutedly have NO voice left by game end, but want to do my part for a full 60 mins!!
What say you T-netters???
Go Tigers!!!

I hope the mini-megaphones come out. I hope they are pointed at AM when he's checking off and at ESPiN's mikes when they are hot.

of those aimed at Murray's earhole on every play, or any QB's for that matter, is a LOT of noise. And most every fan carries a set of these with them at all times.

I think the mini orange pompoms they handed out for the USuC game last year were cool. Just about anything is fine except the woohoo.

on Saturdays. Banners, signs, billboards, PA systems....anything to get rid of it. On a scale of 1 to 10, it is the 10 of sucking.

Clemson - tigers chant is the best inside the stadium. Just being loud on third down.
The woohoo is embarrassing. The 1234 is cheesy too.

The only difference is that 1234 has been around since we

were a military school. The woohoo is some wussy crap that was started in the 90s. Woohoo sucks, 1234 is at least a long standing tradition, and is therefore tolerable, imho.

You're saying we should stop the cadence count? Seriously? That tradition has been around almost as long as the school, are you nuts?

More than notre dame (77) More than fsu More than miami More than scar
Agree with everything said, however, pulling the man card for using an official Orange/Purple pom pom? I have learned to accept Purple as an official school color.
Below is an example of the absolute perfect look

It ain't the purple. I'd soon wear a brasserie or thong if I'm gonna show up in female attire.

We didn't have pom poms or purple "back then"

only Winston cigarettes for pom poms.
Trust me. Nobody wants to see us in a brasserie or thong in any color.
How'd the okra crop do? I've got a second planting of peas in the ground.
This week I've got to erect a gate; dig a ditch; and tear down two deer stands (season begins Aug 15th). Good times.

Get the Surgeon General involved. There is definitely something harmful about the woohoo. I'd rather sit by a tobacco chewing, cigar smoking fan, than a woohooer.

I think megaphones when Clemson is playing defense and towels/pom-poms when they are on offense makes sense.
I am also banning the Woo Hoo and purple, and looking to market the stripe (black) more so than the paw this season. (as it combines the military heritage, the unique tradition of running down the hill and the mascot (tiger) more than the paw IMO. (and therefore says more about the University)
