Saw a guy yesterday screaming profanities at the top of his lungs yesterday at an Alabama fan 10 rows down. His wife/girlfriend was horrified and he was an embarrassment to us all. This is isolated of course, but way too common.

Saw some old fart at a tailgate in front of pleasant hall scream f*** Tennessee as some young guy and his girlfriend simply walked down the sidewalk.


So you note this, however a few thousand students can not just look around and say...."damn, this is kind of offensive, maybe we just shouldnt do it"

I am not saying they have to talk like their momma is around, but come on.

I would like to ask the students if it is worth having all of the good songs banned?


Did you even go to the game on Saturday?

Our band plays the best song list in the country.

When the rest of the stadium carries the noise like the student section does for the whole game...THEN you guys can talk about our "language".

Until then, the reason TS is that loud.....remains the student's pride!

The couple next to me left when we got the ball back after alabama scored with 2 minutes left in the 4th...they must really have not cared about the outcome, or have waaaaay more faith in this team than i do.

Not every person in the student section is drunk. Yes, there are drunk people in the student section but there are drunk people scattered all throughout the stadium. The students are the ones who want to be there the most so let them have fun. If you don't like it, don't show up. If you're a real fan you'll just sit back and cheer on your tigers.

They do have a great song list, and they will have to change it as soon as the student section comes up with their own lyrics.

No, I got it.

The Tiger Rag was banned by the administration, not the students. Take it up with them.

The band still plays Neck and host of other great songs.

It's old people bitching just to bitch.

The simple reality is that the entire student section screaming "Suck that Tiger dick, bitch!" is absolutely not needed and classless. I screamed and yell all game every game. I don't use profanity. By all means I want the student section to scream and scream loudly, but when the student section as a group screams the same profanity it's pretty audible.

if the student section is responsible for getting a song he likes banned then he has every right to complain about it

For saying "you suck," which may be the lamest thing ever.

They didn't have to ban it. Call them and complain.

Someone correct me if I am wrong but wasn't Tiger Rag banned because it had "a-hole a-hole" added to it.

It pisses me off that the students are so juvenile with the cursing in the songs but I don't want to get rid of them. The frats? I want them gone. Make them all student seats.
