I remember being in the stadium the week they banned singing "the south will rise again" at the end of the song. The ending was sung as loud as I had ever heard it the second the band cut themselves off. What do you think is going to happen when you tell 10,000 drunk college kids to NOT do something?

Exactly. I hated TSWRA chant but as soon as Boone told the students not to do it, I knew what was going to happen and like you said it was loud as hell.

I only consider myself racist when I drive or watch the news but hearing TSWRA sung like that seriously made me cringe. For a school trying to distance themselves so far from the past I'm amazed they didn't put a stop to it until my junior year

edit: maybe sophomore? the only real time line I have is based off of what house in Oxford I was living in at the time
