Ok so we can make the flyers and put the yell on there and when we win we can do it. Is that a better idea? But if we win everyone will be going crazy and then it will never happen. What do you think we should do rex?

when we win everybody will be cheering and doing the war hymn so it has to be when we know we are going to win and the game is almost over

We could add some of these Williams cheers as well:

They list this for the Watermelon Rind yell:

Watermelon, watermelon,
Watermelon, rind.
Look at the scoreboard,
See who's behind!
You, you, you, you...(could be replaced with t.u., t.u., t.u.)

and then this gem:

Ice cream sundae,
Banana split,
We think your team plays like
SHIFT to the left,
SHIFT to the right,
Stand up, sit down,
Fight fight fight!

THAT is awesome. So lets not just talk about it. How are we going to successfully pull this off? We need a game plan. I am on campus and I am sure I can recruit a few people to help out with this. What do we need to do?

Yeah, when I say wait until the game is over, I mean until it is no longer in doubt. But that assumes that we can get that far ahead.

I'm not the law around here, needless to say. You do what you want. But it would be sad to do the yell and then lose and have to eat crow.

Just something to keep in mind. Above all HAVE FUN. That's what it's all about.

Thanks Rex. I agree with you on the crow. No need to do that. Now what??

Sorta like when KU does their "Rock Chalk, Jayhawk" chant...they don't start that until they're certain the game is in hand.

This has the potential to be either very entertaining or very embarrassing...high risk/high yield...I like it.

Print 6,000 copies and do what with them?? put them in the chairs? Pass them out? Where am I going to get 6,000 pieces of paper? I have about 500. haha. I am a poor college student.

on the flyer there should be the chant and maybe a pic of a watermelon

maybe even have the rick barnes quote?

Maybe someone could ask the Batt to print something for the game. Then some Rowdies could place a Batt on each student seat.

This would also obviously help publicize it as well.
macaggie

Anybody know anyone at the Batt?
Palooza11

i dont know anybody in the batt but you should try and contact them. you should also try to contact the yell leaders. have them print some and put them on the chairs before the game
macaggie
How long do you want to ignore this user?
somebody on here must have some connections. This isn't all talk is it? I will try with the Batt tomorrow. But they are going to shoot me down as some joe walking in off the street. And I don't know any of the yell leaders. But i will do my best. Anybody got some help??

Well nice to meet you fish. I am a transfer and this is my first semester. Ha. I guess we will learn someday.

Hopefully someone will step up with connections over the next day or so. I only mentioned the Batt thing 10 minutes ago..

One thing to do if you email the Batt is give a link to this thread to show others think it's a good idea.
macaggie
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Good idea. And the girls game is the night before. So I can try to contact the Yell Leaders there if I have not figured it out prior to that.

wait hold on. somebody needs to have a connection. i know the batt reads texags.....they have written stories about us in the batt before (frangate, fran bashing)

who knows maybe they are reading it right now as we speak
macaggie
