Tennessee playing Rocky Top 500 times a game has to be on the list


This. I put it in the same category as the chop at FSU. It would be genuinely cool if they didn’t do it every 3 plays.

This Gator fan agrees with this. It was good for the first two years after his death but now it's very annoying.


I don’t like the timing of it. We Are the Boys is our end of 3rd tradition, and is awesome. We kind of rush it now having to fit Won’t Back Down in during the same break.

LSU's band attempting to play over Florida's Tom Petty Tribute
That's my new favorite LSU tradition.

Cowbells are awesome and a great tradition
They aren't that annoying in person. I was pleasantly surprised.

Okay, that's accounts for about 16% of the state population. What about the other 84%, dumbass?

Also, there are hog call competitions all across the country every year. Not many spelling contests in Louisiana, theaux, I'm guessing.

1) Cowbells. If you can’t make enough noise without a prop, you are not good fans.

2) Calling of the hogs. It’s just embarrassing to watch. Can’t imagine being one who participates in it.

3) The Texas A&M yell leaders. The midnight yell. I’ve seen them show clips from their trash talk at midnight. Trying to pump up the crowd, it is all just cheesy.

Just looked at the thread title and knew it would be an LSU fan obsessed with A&M. We suck at football and you guys still obsess over us. The insane asylum’s in south Louisiana will be past capacity if we ever manage to win the division.

1. Cowbells
2. Sandstorm
3. Toilet paper in trees
4. Auburn's inability to decide if they're a Tiger or Eagle or Plainsman
5. Pig call

Totally agree. One of the coolest traditions in the SEC. I also really liked Mr. Two Bits. RIP.

Disappointed that you ranked us third. We are an easy 2nd and the Whistler is 1st only because no one could be more irritating.

Give us another chance.

It's not a tradition but I roll my eyes every time I see the PlayStation 3/Spider-Man font numbers on Missouri's field.

That Rammer Jammer "We just beat the hell out of You" BS that the Alabama fans/MDB spew out after every football victory. Totally classless, but it aligns perfectly with their trashy mentality!
