    It is kind of funny that after several years of not playing Tiger Rag when the song was brought back the @$$hole part was still included.

    I was curious about that. They had to have figured with a new student body we wouldn't remember the old chant, but somehow we still got it.

    try and coax the crowd into saying "anus! or "rectum!" and see if people are more or less offended. could be a fun experiment.

    yunno what would be pretty refreshing is if they used racial slurs in unison. now that would be fantastic.

    A. Stick man.

    B. Figurative baby.

    C. Funny premise ridiculing pop culture.

    D. Assumptive conclusion.

    E. Website easily avoided. Lyrics in stadium are quite evident and unavoidable.

    F. Red for "The Kid" :hihi:

    You don't have to go to the game. You can avoid the chants very easily by staying out of the stadium just like you stay off the website. :thumb:
    (sorry, just had to do it)

    Good point.

    Just like I can drive down the street and keep my windows up and radio on to escape the huge SUV next to me with the hip hop MF, ho, and biotch lyrics blaring out at me. I'm not a hip hop hater but too much %#&@ in public is really ridiculous.

    Well, I guess we've really got to keep up with the Joneses at this point.

    It may be a slippery slope, but I can't wait for the first MF cheer at TS. :thumb:

    You should sit with me for a game. The guy a couple of rows back is always yelling "Run muhphuka!"
