THIS. I cringe everytime the PA guys calls it “one of the greatest traditions in all of college football”

It pumps up nobody. More people than not don’t even participate unless it’s a night game and they’re so fricked up by that point you could get them to chant to the Barney the Dinosaur theme.

“The Running of the Gumps” was the greatest tradition in Alabama football history. Dont know why they killed that.

Alabama has been kicking the shite out of them so bad lately, I'd forgotten about it.

Yeah, that shite is cringe. I thought they were making fun of Arkansas fans the first time I saw it, but....

One dumbass group of corps guys doing some cringy shite 20 years ago doesn't make it an A&M tradition.

I think Big Al is gay. I have seen the way he looks at Aubie the Tiger.

I grew up hearing the Sooner tune, and I do love it at certain moments. But jeez we play it something like a thousand times during a game.

Rolling Toomer's Corner.

There, I said it.

Even though my uncle was one of the small group of drunken frat rats who started it back in '53 or so.

It was pretty cool when I was in school 40 years ago. Just seems lame as frick now.

No one does that anymore at A&M except possibly the yell leaders. That video you are showing is over 30 years old.

I know some of you gump fans suffer from JDS (Jimbo Derangement Syndrome) ever since Jimbo called out Nicky then kicked his arse. My advice would be to remove yourself from the rant for at least three weeks. Once the season starts, check back in and see how you feel. At that time, you will either have full blown JDS which will probably send you to the nuthouse or 'bama will be kicking arse as usual and you will have gotten it out of your system until October 8th.

Throwing toilet tissue onto trees in front of a drug store. Man, that’s pathetic.

Mascots wearing masks is one of the most cringeworthy things of all time

Nobody even mentioned Jimbo or Saban except you, which means you are projecting.
