Sweet Caroline

[CloneLawman]

If I were to prioritize things I'd like to see gone, at the top of the list would be the tasteless 'BULL S^&T' chants on national TV. Not a good look for Iowa State. Or any program for that matter. And before people come on here trying to justify it, I too was rather vocal like that at a football game and totally unaware of what impact that had on others until a father of a friend threatened to take me out back and teach me a lesson. I immediately altered my persona because I knew right away he was right. Not that I was afraid of being taken to the wood shed, but again because he was right.

Other than that, so proud to see the enthusiasm last night.

Sometimes ******** is an accurate term. Prudes have to learn to live in society.

So now we're complaining about what songs get played after the game, too?

We're a sick group of people.

Or maybe choose a specific song for each game designed to subtly taunt the opposing team .

Doesn't exactly fit but I'm sure the exs and want to be in Texas would ring loud enough.

Can't wait to play them in Austin.

Juicy wiggle is cringe.

Yes. We are human...or at least most of us are...I think.

Juicy wiggle is cringe.

Just move your hips and dance like fish

Sweet Caroline is strategic. People clear out afterward.

I also look at it as if it's playing we have won the game, match, etc. which is all that matters.

After all, it would be just mean to go sing the Cupcake Song to the opposing team.

LOL never heard of the cupcake song.

Watching Lipsey do the sweet Caroline wave on his way out of the building makes it worth it for me. Looked like a fan on the court.

Just leave the game early like all the blue hairs. Beat the traffic and dont have to hear the music.

I have some sympathy for the people who took their kids to the game and were concerned about the language. On the other hand, have you been in an elementary school any period of time?

The music teacher asked me recently to go in and help the third graders with a project they were preparing for their holiday concert. One girl kept messing up her part, and finally a boy unloaded a trail of f-bombs on her. Now every time I hear “Winter Wonderland,” it will probably make me laugh, but he surely learned that at home and not Hilton Coliseum.

I’d prefer some classics Celine Dion but Sweet Caroline will do I guess.

As long as we get to hear Blum mispronounce her name I'm all for it.

Pretty sure Jesus can do the wiggle.

Sweet Caroline had nothing to do with ISU and other teams/venues had been doing it for years before ISU. Unoriginal, but perfect for the ISU fan base.

Juicy Wiggle is truly an ISU tradition and as far as I know it's theirs. That might be because the song is pretty much horrible, but the ISU fans love it. Original, but perfect for the ISU fan base.

Draw your own conclusions about the fans, particularly their taste in music.

Did you see the guy holding the cord for the TV cameraman in front of the student section on the west side? He looked a little like Redfoo. If he keeps doing that job, adds the funky glasses and a few Juicy Wiggle dance moves, Hilton may explode!

On that note, let's bring back smoke on the water.
