Only heard "We are - Penn State!" And the song, "Fight on, State." Great experience!Hey, do the Penn State fans still chant "We want the lion!" and "We are...Penn State!" followed by "Thank you...You're welcome!" They clearly don't still have the one: "When I say Joe Pa you say Terno...Joe Pa...Turno!"
I hope the students don't do that stupid claw dance when the roar is sounded. I did it because you had to, but that was lame way back in '94.
90% of my post suggests otherwise, yet you continue to solely focus on Kyler and Kliff... that's just weird, but whatever...
You literally said you gave them up when they extended Kyler & Kliff lmao. That’s amazing the other 15 horrible seasons didn’t do it for you.90% of my post suggests otherwise, yet you continue to solely focus on Kyler and Kliff... that's just weird, but whatever...
Right... and then I "literally said": The truth though was that the allure of being at the game, which involved a 50 min drive each way - sometimes longer, and putting up with a large and ever-growing population of drunken fools and fights, as well as large amounts of opposing fans, had finally wore me out.
Players and coaches don't tank. They will want to win this game.
Completely agree about much of what you’ve posted 82. Live sporting events are, for me, just really not worth the trouble any more. The “at home, hi-def TV, proximate fridge and bathroom, watch in my comfies” experience is just too good. Plus, I simply cannot stand the in-between nonsense aimed at the younger fan such as too loud, obnoxious “influencers” who’re paid to scream and shout over the stadium video boards during every timeout in a lame way to fire up the crowd, the insanely loud hip hop that blasts from speakers during every stoppage of play, the annoying cheesecake hostesses who invariably oversee some inane contest during halftime or between periods/quarters of the matchup, and everything else that’s designed to make live attendance “value added.” I understand the need for these things given that staying home has so many advantages and I also get it that the above mentioned are not targeted towards me given my age (I’m 61), but I greatly miss the days when attending a game was all about the game and not about the accompanying fol de rol. Oh, and while I’m at it, get off my lawn!
We still miss your banners when we look up where they used to hang in the stadium. Much respect to you and yours and am glad you are happy with YOUR decision to bail on the team, but there is no reason for you to bash on those of us who have not bailed on going to the games and supporting our team. To each their own.
the dink and dunk / mobile qb combo has given our defense problems this year - especially when a quality run game is involved - forces us to count on our guys upfront - forces us to bring budda up too
I actually expect this to be a very good game. I think it will be very hard fought. I hope it is as good as the last game of 2011 against Seattle when both teams were 7-8 and fighting to not be in last place. It was as intense as a playoff game with some hard hitting. This is the game where Fitz took a brutal shot to the ribs. Went to the sidelines and spit out blood. Goes back in and makes what I would argue was probably the greatest catch of his career. It got us in FG range and we won 23-20 in OT.
