So after hearing about the "Wolf of Wall Street" chest thumping video and corresponding chant during last week's Blackout Game against MSU, I am curious if anyone else has any creative ideas that Rutgers should add to our already large plethora of traditional chants such as the famous "RRRRR, UUUUU" chant, the 3rd down tradition with the heavy metal guitar blaring over the loudspeakers, the beautiful scarlet fireworks, the Knight and the trained horse that come ride around the field (which is so awesome and unique, I love it), and of course the cannon being shot off after touchdowns.
To start things off, one idea I had was on 4th downs where we are on defense.......we should do our "Keep Chopping" hand motion while also chanting DE-FENSE, DE-FENSE, DE-FENSE. So the way it would work is we would do the first chop while chanting "DE" and then the next chop while chanting "FENSE." And this would start the second we saw the other team going for it on 4th down. And to make sure the timing worked properly so you would get the proper effect.... the big board would have the "DE" and then switch to the "FENSE" so that we literally would have everyone "Chopping" in unison which would obviously get our DEFENSE GOING CRAZY!
What does everyone think about that idea... is it worth trying to contact the Athletic Department and try to get them to start using it or does anyone have an even better idea? Don't worry I won't have my feelings hurt if someone comes up with something better.... all I care about is the Rutgers experience moving from one of the most intense and fun stadiums to THE #1 most intense and exciting stadiums in the country!
