Let me sum up why I hate the Hokies.
Sep 26, 2011, 1:54 PM

In 2007, when we were hosting the Hokies in Death Valley, as a sign of respect for the Va Tech shooting victims, our band played their alma mater. You could have heard a pin drop as everyone in the stadium was silent.
Immediately afterwards while our alma mater was being played, their entire visitor section erupted in a chorus of yells and boos.
Screw these redneck P's OS and I hope to God we run up the score.

I'm the complete opposite of a redneck. Most VT people would think people in South Carolina are rednecks.

deep south. Ironic, I know. You can thank Family Guy, the media for cherry picking interviewees and cliche southern jokes for your incorrect perception.
Also, please note that Clemson is a more highly thought-of academic institution than Virginia Tech. Not that Virginia Tech isn't a good school... it most certainly is, but when you think about Clemson people please don't forget our alums are coming from an elite institution.

That's a nice thought, but not entirely accurate. Depends on what program you're interested in and who you ask. Some CU programs are ranked higher, other VT programs are ranked higher. For example, VT engineering school is ranked higher (by most sources) than CU.
Both are good schools. Neither is "elite," despite what Barker would have you believe.

So when they want someone to suck the government ### they hire a CU kid? That's damning with faint praise.

I know the old 'everybody has 'em' adage...it's just that this was the only type I came across during the course of my day/night at your fine institution. VT has some of the worst (by worst, I'm referring to mindlessly vulgar, sloppy, crass jagoffs) fans I've ever come across. If it weren't for Maryland, you people would be the scourge of the Mid-Atlantic.

You are an idiot if you'd think Clemson is in a more redneck area than VT. Blacksburg is in the middle of absolute nowhere with nothing around it. People starting fires in trashcans in the tailgating lots is a routine thing in Blacksburg. Clemson is a southern school but we aren't near the redneck school people claim us to be.

The vast majority of VPI&SU people are not rednecks.
Good people, very similar to Clemson folks.
I think the problem is you are too close to WVU and Maryland.

I live in VA and I need to clarify something. The Hokies aren't that bad, it's those uppidy snobs at UVA that I can't stand. Most Hokies fans I have gotten to know are similar to most Clemson fans. Hey, we all have a little camo in our closets, ok? But God forbid you upset a UVA fan, they would probably try to slap a lawsuit on you or something. Or throw their bowtie at you.

alma mater playing is part of your pre-game. Our alma mater does not hold anywhere near the importance that I understand it does at other schools. We had no idea that's what was going on.
We were just cheering, getting juiced for the beginning of the game.
No disrespect intended whatsoever, we just didn't realize what was going on.
At Lane this Saturday, you will see OUR pre-game ritual...the 2 bands, the leading in of the Corp of Cadets, Hokies Respect announcement by a former player...on and on. I don't expect you to know what OUR ritual is...you can't expect visiting fans to know yours.
I've been to every ACC and Big East (blech) stadium for at least one VT away game. Most of the time we do our own thing right from the beginning. Don't fault us for being rowdy and enthusiastic - Lord knows the ACC needs MORE of that, not less.

I was there in my seat with my Hokie cousins. They all wondered what the heck the fans in the corner were doing and weren't really happy with their fanbase. That was truly disrespectful and unless you are blind, deaf, or absolutely hammered you would have known what was going on in the stadium.
All the following fan bases have gotten it, Auburn, UGA, A&M, Marshall, TCU, plus I am sure that i have missed a few. Only the turkeys couldn't quite understand what was going on at the time.

not the visitor section. Our allotment was completely sold out months prior (duh). So many of us Hokie fans do what we do in Hooville - we buy up those silly "3 packs" your ticket office peddles, then dump the other 2 games.
I'm sure you sold out against AU and FSU, but face it...it's been YEARS you sold out a game that was not a heavy game with a large traveling rep fanbase.
And as far as the big conspiracy theory on our collective effort (4k+ fans mind you) to purposely disrupt your alma mater???? REALLY??? Now that I remember correctly, the VT ticket office did put a note in our visitor tickets: "Ok, here goes, MAKE SURE you all boo during pre-game..no..wait..even better, make it specifically their alma mater. They HATE that....
Delusional.

Even if you are in the upper deck where I usually sit, the PA announcement clearly states 'please stand for the Clemson University alma mater'.
I doubt the same will happen this week but I can't speak for what other Tiger fans will do at Lane.

right above and next to the Hokie contingent. While I'll accept that YOU may not have known what was going on, the folks in those sections sure did. There was nothing to boo (Clemson players coming on to field, etc.) other than our pregame ceremony. They were attempting to disrupt it, plain and simple.

I'm really surprised by all this. I really enjoyed my trip to Clemson and thought you had a great fanbase.
That said, I had no idea about this whole alma mater thing. I can guarantee nobody was trying to disrupt your alma mater because I was there with 10 Hokies and none of us knew about this alma mater thing before now, and we were certainly not too drunk to know what was happening.
This really just comes down to our pregame ritual of getting loud and excited before games. Nobody would try to ruin your own ritual in your own house. But I can assure you, of the 10 people I was with, not a single one of us knew you guys were doing something special.

thought process that your fans are ignorant wipes ?
We pretty much do our own thing from the beginning - then why weren't you all rowdy and being your own cool selves while your alma mater was playing - especially since it doesn't mean that much to you ?
MAYBE, just MAYBE, if you paid attention to what was going on around you, you might learn something or see some other cool stuff other than the same group of rednecks bouncing around doing their own thing every away game.

Unless VT is actually Virginia Tech School For The Deaf, there's a huge booming voice that comes over the PA system during pre-game that says "Please remain standing for the Clemson alma mater." Every single game.

I wasn't there so I can't speak specifically to whether or not the VT fans in attendance knew that Clemson's alma mater was playing or if they were booing. What I can say is that if the VT fans in attendance booed during Clemson's alma mater imediately after the Clemson band finished playing the VT alma mater,then that behavior is really embarrassing. I'm sorry that happened. No wonder many on here have a negative perception of VT and its fans. I can say with 100% certainty that most of those who actually attend the game in Blacksburg will have a much different opinion when they leave.

I understand why Clemson fans are upset, but I would've noticed if everyone around me was booing. It's more likely we were just making noise to get pumped up than booing.

No, seriously. Your car will be fine. Let's not get melodramatic.

VT fan here- we had no idea you were playing your alma mater

I dont think I have ever heard our band play our alma mater. I wasnt even aware that we had one let alone realize your band played ours. And I certainly didnt know when your band was playing yours. Sorry for disrupting your tradition but it wasnt a sign of disrespect.

How do you not know your alma mater?....
Sep 27, 2011, 10:35 AM

No disrespect intended but that just baffles me. What song does your school raise its banner to? What song do you rally around? What song signifies your schools identity if your alma mater isn't important? The Hokie Pokie?

I was playing in a country/rock band up in clayton. Even in his 30's it was no denying who he was.
Had a blast with those folks.....and btw....they hate that movie and the song dueling banjos. Play that song up there and risk being lynched.

Every school has an alma mater and it IS the song that represents your university weather VT fans care about theirs or not (Check out a dictionary). The alma mater isn't our tradition. Its EVERY school's tradition. What you listed is unique to the school. You have 2 marching bands (congrats?). We have Howard's Rock and The Hill. Not the same.
Point is, we showed a great sign of respect to VT, its alumni, and its students by having a (very obvious) moment of silence and playing your school's (apparently incredibly unimportant) alma mater and we were not shown the same respect.

part, but it seems that logic would tell you that when most of the fans in the stadium are standing and singing to something being played by the band, and the Nat'l Anthem has already been played, chances are it's the alma mater.

them for homecoming for a sure-bet win.
Then they did what Miami did (and USuCk has tried to do) and hired winning coaches and puppy-killing degenerate players to take them to "the next level."
Of course, all things must come to an end, as Miami's dominance did.
I say it's time to put an end to Hokie dominance in this conference just as we did to FSU's.

have heard of this. Usually the travelling fanbase are the "true" college football fans so im surprised to hear of this.
Its too bad, most people from Va tech really like Clemson and the fact that its very similar to VT(ag, engineering, miltary tradtion)
Hopefully, we make this up to you in the form of some great hospitality for those making the trip!
