Not in TS

Ahh the old days when even old men would dance along to this bad arse tune, sans vulgarity. We will speak of it to our children as folk lore one day. Alas.

I like it better without the vulgarity. Maybe the students will come up with something more clever to sing along.

When I listen to that video, I can’t tell if a few folks are indeed saying STTDB, or if it’s just my subconscious playing tricks on me.

It's a southern Baptist hymn. #respect

It once was a great addition to the Tiger band’s repertoire. Once the late 20’s-30’s individuals who got the networks to put pressure on LSU to stop it grow up, Neck will die for good. A grown man in his later 30’s-40’s with a business, responsibilities, young children, etc won’t be screaming STTDB in public. It happened for a few years while you were in college. We get it. It’s gone. Grow up.

It’s vile and disgusting. Embarrassing. Can we come up with something else ? Good grief.

Neck is a song. STTDB is a chant now sung to every song. This does not mean Neck wasn’t/isn’t a bad arse song that the entire stadium got into.

This x 1000. When the band started playing it, before the childish, vulgar chant, it was awesome. Usually was at a big moment in the game and everyone was waving their hands. Now it is cringeworthy and probably won’t get played again because of the stupid chant.

Yup. So, now the students resort to doing the chant over most of the tunes the band plays. It’s a losing battle...

Sad that America is too PC for Neck.
Even worse the fact that grown men bitch about it.

All you pussies that can’t handle your kids hearing a curse word, STTDB

I’m conflicted on this. I’d usually prefer if the students would ditch the chant, but would be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy how it triggered the frick out of Clemson fans. Poor little ole Clemson fans’ virgin ears were violated by TTD.

I have to ask if it’s still just the students chanting it? Watching the video of the alumni band on Bourbon Street, most of the fans chanting it in that video looked too old to be college students.

If students and fans are going to chant vulgarities to whatever the band plays, then I’d rather the band play the best songs possible. Nothing pumps up the crowd or the players for that matter more than Neck.

Lastly, can the SEC fine LSU the $250k (or however much the fine is) if the students/fans do the chant to other songs or is the fine only levied if the band plays that particular song?

Can LSU and ESPN figure out a way for the TV audio to pick up the music but not the chant?

I’d like it to be played, and if students are chanting to whatever is played, then the fine is the only thing preventing it from happening if it is only issued when the band plays that particular song.

Can Woodward work out something with the SEC to eliminate the fine as long as LSU and ESPN take steps to ensure that the chant isn’t heard on TV? Obviously there’s nothing they can do to censor it for everyone in the stadium.

The fastest way to get the fans to stop chanting STTDB during games is to institutionalize it. Jumbeaux-tron graphics and Cheerleaders holding up signs with the words so the fans get it right. Put it in the official game programs. The kids will get bored with it once 'the man' commercializes it and makes it mainstream. The concept of profane words would become so 20th century overnight.

The powers have to have figured this out by now. The fact they have not implemented this simple, easy and foolproof policy tells me they actually want STTDB chants to continue, but they don't feel comfortable publicly stating it.

Who takes credit for coming up with STTDB? Has anyone claimed it? Had to be one person and it took off from there.

It's just a terrible song for a marching band. Awful really.
