1. does anybody like that guy mr student superfan who paints his face and wears the suspenders every game? i mean everybody thinks he is a douche, right? i mean i'm all for being into it and all but what kind of man over 13 paints his face at all, much less for every game?

2. so after years and years of the gen student pop ignoring that stupid shit the band does when an opposing player travels, have they picked it up now? wtf? it was just 2 years ago that we saw 2 or 3 students doing that shit and thought they were ridiculous, now everybody does it? really?

This guy is really cool, and the number 1 fan we have. And why the fuck are you talking about face painting, this is SPORTS. You show your support to the team.

At least they are actively participating in the game and cheering for their team...a lot more than can be said for most of the other people in the building.

Seriously, we had a 4 point lead and then went on a 2-19 run to end the game, and you want to bitch about the travel chant and guys in facepaint?

Puddy enters wearing a Devils' jersey and red and green paint all over his face.

Elaine: What the--

Puddy: So what do you think?

Elaine: What is that?

Puddy: I painted my face.

Elaine (still in disbelief): You painted your face?

Puddy: Yeah.

Elaine: Why?

Puddy: You know, support the team.

Elaine: Well, you can't walk around like that.

Puddy: Why not?

Elaine: Because it's insane?

Puddy: Hey, you gotta let them know you're out there, this is the playoffs.

opposing team travels, the band chants:

You walked! You Travelled! You took too many steps!
You walked! You Travelled! You took too many steps!
Leaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrnnnnnnnnnnnn To Dribble!

it usually confuses the hell out of people, but thats most of the fun...

Me too. One time I asked him how they always get those seats and he just smiled and shook his head like he didn't know. I've also seen him talk a lot to the ushers like they're buddy buddy and one time I actually saw them get moved to some different seats after he talked to them. Very mysterious.

Nah the gayest thing we do is sitting around talking about how gay something is. it really never ends. someone is always saying this chant is gay, the nc state chant is gay, the wolf sign is gay, the rocks and wolf at the entrance to the tunnel is gay, wolfpack in the house is gay, our football uniforms are gay, the RBC Center is so gay compared to Reynolds, the way we break the press is so gay.

^^^yea, how about leaving games early is gay, or not being able to do one chant in unison is gay, or that none of the alumni yell or get involved in chanting whatsoever? I was in the lower level sideline tonight and the older alumni involvement was pathetic. If you can't even clap along to the fight song, why bother coming?

1. Its wolfdawg on here, and rwoody, get some spirit dude. at least hes got the courage to do that, and the energy to go to every damn game, no kidding. I can think of like 5 games only hes missed in the past 4 years.

2. Fuck you.

I have seen them move to other seats a few times. I think they have normal tickets and the ushers let them move down to the floor and they just always sit there and the people that actually have those seats are too big of pussies to ask them to move. Plus the fact that there has been an abundance of empty sideline seats means it is generally easy to shuffle around. The only part that confuses me is they were there for the UNC game last year when every student seat looked to be filled.

are you fucking kidding me? if you were judging this off of TV, especially the beginning of the telecast, they prerecord a lot of stuff. And now I'm seeing on TV where you could think that the attendance didn't look good, at the beginning of the game there were a quite a few empty seats. It filled in nicely.

the lower bowl with a few seats here and there was full. the upper bowl, aside from the students sections and a couple of other sections were close to full.


Attendance: 17173



That is a DAMN GOOD attendance, especially for this shitty of a team.


also regarding all the other points in the OP and elsewhere, it's a hell of a lot better than having no originality at all. and since when is body/facepaint gay? it's done in a lot of places.

got any other ideas to be original?

The alumni come through when the team does. its plenty loud in the RBC when State actually makes some plays.

One more thing, what the hell is with students still walking in at 7:40?

So rwoody has a problem with me. He must be related to the guy who had to get verification before I was allowed into the Dean Dome on Sunday to support our women's basketball team. By the way, rwoody I will be at the wrestling match tomorrow vs Duke and our women's basketball game vs FSU on Thursday.

The crowds are decent. Most of the time they are Student Wolfpack Club events, but not all. I try to go to about every home game unless it's during the break b/c I live in Gastonia. I have been a State fan since birth, so I basically have academics and sports.

Dude

What else do expect him to do. Watch the clown shoe auction on the court?

If the man entertains himself and keeps his sanity buy going balls out, let him.

God knows, at this point the only thing red I wear during games are my eyes swolled up from alcohol.

Totally honest here, I was never big on the travel chant either, it lasts way to long and felt kind of lame because nobody knows what's going on and everybody like wtf? at the end, a lot of the times I don't yell it, just point and shit

but I guess it is 'the band's thing' and it's not going anywhere because enough people seem to like it

also of note I saw on the little 'cheer sheet' that they wrote one of the cheers as

N - C - STATE!
N - C - STATE!

the way it should be, but of course people didn't have a whole lot to cheer about and the cheerleaders will never start the cheer that way, they just do the gay fast version with always turns into a bunch of rabble at different speeds because fans in general are notorious for rushing and the inability to keep time

glad to see that somebody is trying to bring it back anyway
