Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

I'm getting close to being done.

    In the good old days, when the Huskies gave up a TD early in the fourth quarter to fall behind, the Husky Marching Band would start playing the "Rocky" theme and the stadium would start to rock. It felt like college football. Now, they play stupid movie clips and and then blast techno music while the PA guy exhorts the crowd to "show us your dance moves!"

    It's really horrible, and that's not from being in my 40s now.

    Yes. That's what I'm talking about. Most of the time I can't even hear the band because they have some other thing going on. Do they still play the Darth Vader thing on defense? I don't even know and I have been to every game.

    I'm a tad old school. I would live a Roman Coliseum atmosphere where there was no glitz. Just booze, hookers, and the gladiators on the field. No lights, smoke, smile cams, or fucking dumb shut videos. I love the game. It's good enough by itself. Don't need MLB or soccer fag bullshit. Just a little smash mouth and chlamydia.

    This thread further demonstrates why Seattle is the worst sports city on the planet.

    Damone, my father And I had the very same conversation last night. We are picking one or two games if that after this season and we likely passing on cal and the apple cup.
    I received dirty looks and smirks for yelling and stomping in my section and my standing up on 3rd downs proved way too much for the people around us.

    The crowd wears more black than purple for "regular" games.

    The 4th quarter batman video is the worst thing ever created for football.

    Marinerization is even worse in reality than we feared it would be a decade ago when we saw it begin to take hold on Husky Football.

    Have you tried to get any data access during the games? Can't even send a fucking text.
