It is doubtful Sean Moth would ever do this but maybe a secondary announcer with a floor microphone could do it?

I also knew the cheerleader who held up the sign. She was perched on the shoulders of a male cheerleader and was baffled on why people were yelling Purdue.

And, during timer outs there did more than build pyramids. I think being on a spirit squad requires athletic ability and certainly commitment, don't get me wrong, but much of this starts there.vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10437538169497425364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-11194007210432137152016-07-25T10:26:34.534-04:002016-07-25T10:26:34.534-04:00Not a big fan of it, since I sit in the end zone f...Not a big fan of it, since I sit in the end zone for football and I'm conflicted on which way to yell. One chant I do miss is the "Go Cards Beat Purdue!" There is, of course a story to it.<br /><br />It was in Freedom Hall many moons ago and Louisville was playing men's basketball against Florida State. A cheer started behind the benches (GO!) It moved to the north end zone (CARDS!). Then to the side across from the benches (BEAT) and finally the student section end zone (PURDUE!)<br /><br />What!?! Well, a cheerleader had forgotten to replace the Purdue sign she held up with a Florida State sign. It went around two more times before they finally got her the Florida State board. By then it was too late. The students screamed PURDUE! <br /><br />The tradition held until the cheer squad dropped that particular cheer. It was great fun to see the expressions on the visiting team, coaches, few fans and cheerleaders when they heard the entire student section scream PURDUE! <br /><br />It is rumored a notable Marquette player muttered while coming back on the floor after the cheer was finished and the timeout over to a UofL player..<br /><br />"You $%@#&* !@#$%&# sure must hate Purdue." <br /><br />It was refreshing to see it come back...in it's correct form...when the UofL WBB squad hosted Purdue in the NCAA Tournament second round back in 2013. They should have brought the original cheerleader back that held the Purdue sign way back when...<br /><br /><br />PaulieCardinal Couplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10565155435705858363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-53641505845030545132016-07-25T10:09:23.126-04:002016-07-25T10:09:23.126-04:00The Red/Black chant on either side of the arena/ve...The Red/Black chant on either side of the arena/venue never has taken off like the Blue/White yell Kentucky has.
