Before kickoff of our home games what should the intro be on our big *** Jumbotron? I think they need to go all out on the video/s so we can get the Jumbotron's full effect.

I'm pretty tired of the highlight reels from games against Murray State and Tulane. I want us to open one game up with the More Cowbell skit from Saturday Night Live, or pieces of it (http://www.funnyhub.com/videos/pages/snl-more-cowbell.html)

I also want to see them show clips of us tearing down field goals after wins in the 90s. Including some of the biggest plays that occurred on offense as well to remind us that we won't be watching a 3-2 barn burner.
Lastly I wouldn't mind them having a former player give us some motivational words on it before the game or something in that fashion.

What are your thoughts and ideas?</p>

Have a video showing players going off on the golf cart a la Office Space printer scene. For the first game, they should have an instructional video for how to act at games, especially for freshmen who insist on ringing their cowbell when we're on offense.

I like the idea of the "More Cowbell" video like once or twice, but doing it every time would get really played out. What they should do is to tailor the highlights in the video to whoever we're playing, and show highlights from past games. That'd work for most of our schedule, although I'm struggling to think of ANY highlights we could possibly come up with for LSU. What's going to be interesting is something that's been discussed on here at length - the intro music. That's going to have just as much to do with getting the crowd/players in the tunnel jacked up for the game as the video.

I'm interested to see what GB comes up with.

can kiss my ***. It's a sorry *** company that mothballs a plant rather than selling it -- achieving two objectives: limiting competition and keeping folks out of work.

Bryan Meats ain't the Bryans anymore.

I just don't think it would ever fly. I'm all about blasting some AC/DC or Guns N Roses, but I don't think those would fly either. With us being MSU and all, we'll probably end up with something more like this.

We could show the play to Ducre last year, except somehow photoshop him catching the ball and running for a TD. I still don't see how he botched that play. I think that was the best play we ran during Croom's tenure. Either that or the first pass that Tray Rutland threw. Beautiful right to the two yard line that Keon Humphries just missed.

That pisses me off so bad about our fans. Most of them are idiots.

on that play. But then again I'm kinda of regaining it. He gave up on that play flat out but it was probably because it wouldn't have mattered in the end. We weren't going to win that game even if LSU forfeited. Croom just wasn't going to let us win.

Pretty Vacant by the Sex Pistols would have been appropriate.

A actually liked the historical highlight reel for the most part, of course, take out Croom's the only color that matter's here is maroon for common sense purposes.

Change it up to fit the current situation, maybe some different music other than what Bama plays, add in some things like Norwood's run against UF, AJ's INT return against Bama, the 2000 UF game run(s) by Dicenzo or Dontae, or Smoot picking off a pass, add in CJ wide open at the 15, followed by the pick, and finally the kick by Westerfield. Previously, it was just Bean kicking the ball up in the air. Also add more Arkansas 1998 and Bama 1996.

Once you get through the highlights, then have something at the very end that says something like- "Now it's time to spread the fun." And then immediately go to Shay Hodge getting blown up and other exciting plays through the years like they always do set to something like Pantera.

You gotta remember the gymnasts (epheumistically called "cheerleaders") get the freshmens riled up by holding up signs saying "NOISE" when we have the ball.

And don't forget the Rick's Rowdy holding up the "MAKE SOME NOISE" sign when we were walking the basketball down the court for the Ole Miss game.

Of that, how long does the band take? Just wondering because it never seems to be scripted well. You have the big GO STATE and the MAROON - WHITE thing everybody is up and going and then the 8 minute lull till the team comes out.

I said it on my blog.

"Hell's Bells" as intro. Ala Va. Tech's "Enter Sandman"

Makes too much sense.

Word is the SEC has nixed any incorporation of the "More Cowbell" skit as it promotes violation of an SEC rule. Thanks LT!!!

and if the SEC really has preemptively nixed the "more cowbell" skit, there are ways around it, like getting walken to say "i gotta have more cowbell" or whatever. let's be creative, for once.</p>

What if you had the snl deal start and cut it off right before he says cowbell. Walken: "I've got a fever. And the only prescription is........."

Maybe have the video of will ferrell on the screen for a few seconds.

Just no baja men. None.

I think the having Walken do the More Cowbell is corny. Didn't Ole Miss have wrestlers pre-record video clips a few years ago(I think it was them). I thought that was pretty dumb too.

Use good rock music like some of those above, and tailor the video to that weeks games, showing highlights, etc.
They need to look at how VT uses the music for coming on the field, and Bama does a good job with the video(sure there are others).

Of course in the end, the only thing that really gets the crowd excited is knowing you have a chance to win that day, and that kick-off is just going to be the start of an *** whooping...or a 3-2 pillow fight.

Metallica has come out to a revised version of "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly" theme in their latest concerts. It is tied to the Ecstasy of Gold song and they got the idea of the intro from the scene in the movie where that guy is running around that huge cemetery looking for that grave that is supposed to be full of gold. I don't know if it's the anticipation of the oncoming epic awesomeness of the concert or the intro.. but it was cool as hell. Maybe that theme matched to some kind of usual highlight video or something.

Then when the team comes out break off into a hell of a song or something along with..smoke.. lights.. explosions.. etc etc.

If so, that kills all intro. I would rather see us run out of a dog house or nothing at all.

I think finding someway to incorporate parts from the Walken more cowbell skit would be wonderful, and then something that builds and has a climax. Cut out/Get a new band thing instead of that creepy *** one with the strange singing that made me feel like i'm on a bad acid trip.

Note: SNL doesn't do "corny" that's Mad TV

Until that happens, nothing will look right. A dog house will look stupid too.
