Lame, compare that to an Eagle flying around your stadium.

Without him, every single high school announcer in Arkansas would have remained clueless as to how best advise their fans that the offense had gotten another (insert school mascot)......FIRST DOWN!

War Eagle, Rammer Jammer, and Saw Varsity's Horns Off are my favorites.

LSU - Anything involving their band, creole and cajun food, being assholes


i've heard this (the being a-hole part) from numerous sources over a 40+ yr time frame. i'm starting to believe it myself. i see it as most LSU fans are extremely gregarious and like to take verbal shots (as well as liquid ones) at opposing team fans. but i'm ok with being an a-hole for that.

I'm sorry but no auburn traditions were taken into account. See the first page for reasons. I hope you'll understand and god bless!!

Six pages and no one has yet to specifically mention the "woo" in Rocky Top?

I take a history of southern football class at Alabama and yesterday we actually read the words of rocky top...that's one weird, inbred song.

It's pretty awesome. We learned about football before the SEC, the SEC of the past, and now the present SEC. We even talked a little bit about A&M yesterday

i personally haven't seen anything that tops tgbftl marching down the hill and lsu pregame. i am glad i got to see tenn pregame and the dotting of the I but, i give lsu the nod.

auburn eagle flight. wow. got to be a close second. "tiger walk" - meh.

rammer jammer is up there. it's infuriating when bama wins.

toomer's corner, yeah it's a tradition but, seems kind of lame and juvenile.

mr two bits was ok i guess but, the guy didn't even go to florida.

i know the cowbells annoy people but, i'm glad state has something unique.

i don't know how much of a tradition this is but, ky's band spells out ky or wildcats, can't remember which. meh.

don't really remember anything at georgia or vandy that stood out.

walk of champions, almost as embarrasing as woo pig soiee which definitely wins the prize for worst.

edit: forgot about hotty toddy. cool but not as cool as rammer jammer. sorry

No, but really. Have some of you guys ever taken the time to actually read the lyrics for rocky top?


Wish that I was on ole Rocky Top
Down in the Tennessee Hills.
Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top,
Ain't no telephone bills.

Once I had a girl on Rocky Top,
Half bear the other half cat;
Wild as a mink as sweet as soda pop,
I still dream about that.

Once two strangers climbed ole Rocky Top,
Lookin' for a moonshine still.
Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top,
Reckon they never will.
Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top,
Dirt's too rocky by far.
That's why all the folks on Rocky Top,
get their corn from a jar.

Nope, I'm not doing that Blount stuff. I'm in the honors college, but everyone who made a 28 or over on the ACT is. It's a 1 hour honors course.
