New Hand Sign?

It sounds childish, but sitting here at my desk swirling my fingers, I mean the "I" around, I can not help but smile. How intimidated would the opposition be to see that in the stands. Even the older alumns doing it would scare the hell out of them.
Thank God somebody agrees with me. By the mid point of the season I started to rail on this song while in the student section as it started playing @ the most inappropriate times and I would get a lot of dirty looks. I was beginning to think maybe I was the only one who thought sweet Caroline wasn't the best way to get the adrenaline pumping.
"Hands, touching hands, reaching out
Touching me, touching you
Oh, sweet Caroline"
I don't know about you, but when I sing those words I want to get out there on the field and GO HIT SOMEBODY!!! ::sarcasm::
I like that idea of swirling arms and fingers in the stands "mini cyclones". I think that would look pretty neat if the whole crowd got into it.
Not relevant to this, but do you guys realize we can spell CIZIK as something like CYZIK?? First coach ever to be spelled that way..
Before we did the stupid hold your key's up in the air and jingle them on kickoffs. We did the finger in the air Swirl motions like a tornado on kickoffs. It was great. Now we do the stupid Key's thing. Jingling key's has nothing to do with Nothing and it's stupid.
So we actually took one tradition out and made way for another tradition that is stupid.
Traditions happen on there own. They are not just made up things.
P.S. Dio invented the Metal Sign, Similar to the Hook Em Horns Sign, on stage one night. With no intention of every single metal fan holding it up at every loud concert in the world. Rock on.

Well, someone has to think of them at some point, otherwise nothing would happen.
Yeah, back in the 80s the "swirling finger" was for kick-offs and the "jingling keys" was for a key play. It sounds like you people have changed my traditions!
FYI, LSU fans use the "jingling keys" once the game is out of hand (LSU typically winning) to signify that they are getting the keys out and heading back to the car to tailgate. So, some of these traditions can have multiple meanings.
Or we could get a new stadium that rotates around the field... one GIANT cyclone! And this way EVERYONE gets to sit on the 50 yard line!
Or how 'bout when the team runs out on the field to AC/DC and the place is going nuts, the adrenaline is pumping, we're ready to kick *** and kill and then they play....
"The Bells of Iowa State"
What a buzz-kill.
