please help me generate some of that tiger pride here!

Hi!

I was raised in Massillon and a proud former football fan. I am now in South Carolina and have a son on the high school football team. I still remember how much fun it was and how great it was when the crowd was involved in the game...it truly fosters team spirit and community pride! I am trying to enhance our crowd support for JV football and am wondering if you wouldn't mind refreshing my memory with some of the songs that are played over the loud speaker before kick offs, time outs, etc to pump up the crowd. I remember, of course "Eye of the Tiger", "shout,"and "we will rock you", but cannot recall any others. I am tring to encourage our booster club to do the same.....can you help refresh my memory with other songs and ideas to promote crowd support? I appreciate your assistance. Thank you and best wishes for a great season!

Hi Kelly,

Believe it or not, I've been to Wando, SC. We used to go to Wild Dunes on The Isle of Palms every year for about 12 years. Have also golfed at Dunes West. Good luck in your efforts at generating support for your son's team, but you have to be real. You'll never be able to replicate Tiger football, just do your best!

Try, Hells Bells (AC/DC) on 3rd down while on Defense. Celebration (Kool and The Gang) after you win. Thunderstruck (AC/DC) after a TD or hard hit. Born To Run (Bruce Springsteen) if you are a good running team. Crazy Train (Ozzy Osborne) when kicking off.

Don't know if your mascott is a Tiger as well, but "Welcome To The Jungle" is a great pre-game song to play!!! Another good one is "TNT" by AC/DC

Best of luck

Thanks everyone! Please keep the ideas coming, I know it will never compare, but if we could capture even a tenth of that Massillon spirit, it sure would make a difference for the kids and fans! Please feel free to continue to post or email me ideas!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hells Bells on 3rd is okay, but...

The other day I was watching a college game and they played "For Whom the Bell Tolls" by Metallica. It was kind of nice to hear something different :)
