As long as the Cyclones win, they can play anything they want. I'm partial to 'This is the Song that Never Ends'.
Sweet Caroline

Can definitely tell the fans that sit on their hands thinking they are better than everyone else instead of enjoying the atmosphere with 99% of the other fans from this thread.
In a vacuum you are probably right...
After sitting through smoke on the water entrance videos, jock jams before tipoff, and Sweet Caroline cool-downs. All both generic and cringe (a tough combo to pull off might I add)
Juicy Wiggle is objectively not even arguably the worst 'thing' we put out there. The students make it look good and it's definitely unique.
Music is not our strong suit, so the bar is pretty low.
The song is whatever. The dance is cringe.
It was not the normal crowd involvement last night when Sweet Caroline was played. I for one was completely focused on the hand shake line!
I love it when the team is winning enough that we get to debate insignificant stuff. Personally I think the team should wear taller socks.
Old man checking in, in favor of Juicy Wiggle.
No, it's not "stairway to heaven" or "imagine"; it's a goofy fun happy song. Relax and smile - not everything needs optimized.
And as noted above, Sweet Caroline is borrowed and overdone. So is Seven Nation Army, and all the other things. Better or worse, JW is ours. Love it.

I love debating this stuff at this point in the season. It's so much better than looking for enough wins on the remaining schedule to get onto the tournament bubble.
It was written on the back of a Dixie cup. It’s actually about killing a kid in a car accident and fleeing the scene. VH1 story tellers.
Now that you know the full story do you feel differently?
New bracketology had us as a 3 in Des Moines…before Texas game.
I don't mind Juicy Wiggle. I don't put it on my spotify but I think it is fun to watch the crowd and students when it comes on. I like that it is Iowa state's, about half the nation plays sandstorm or Zombie nation. I'd rather try and be original for a change. I don't like sweet caroline because of the red sox, but at this point i don't think we can change it.
We used jock jams so long that it went from “everybody has it” to an Iowa State exclusive.
Sweet Carolines is not unique to Iowa State. It's Unique to the Boston Red Sox who have played it for years and years. I don't hate the song. I just think it's not good for us. It makes no sense.
Do we still play "Magic" by the Cars near the beginning of games? That was cool but it had run its course! Same with the song that is the subject of this thread! Time to move on from it...
