Budwmn Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Go back, go back, go back to the woods! You're team is sh###y and your coach smokes dope! That's a classic. I am laughing out loud right now! :-) Here's another: FACE OFF! FACE OFF! RIP HIS FACE OFF! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choyt3 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Both classics. I'm amazed that college kids could come up with funny cheers that got the good majority of the student section involved and they didn't even have to delve into George Carlin's naughty word guide.

Hayduke Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I remember when Bowling Green showed up for a series. They had these ugly brown, green and orange sweaters. "Who the h*ll puked on your jerseys!" Then, these poor guys were wearing Bauer "Black Panther" skates. Good for pond hockey, but not the for D-1 level hockey. Jeez, they got taunted. That "back to the woods" chant is an old one. Just modified a bit. I also remember a nasty, "amputate" chant when an opposing player got a bloody nose. Those guys also seemed to know the names of the sisters and girlfriends of most of the WCHA opponents. It was brutally funny sometimes... Ah, those were the days. I just can't do the hangovers anymore! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stack Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 A friend of mine was a member of The Farce. He has the yellow helmet with the red light on top that got turned on when we scored. He told me that one time a lot of The Farce went to a game in Duluth. They were out bar hopping in the middle of the afternoon on Saturday and when they were walking from one bar to the next outside they noticed a crowd of people in front of the courthouse. They proceeded to chant: "We've got spirit yes we do, we've got spirit how bout you." He said that immediately they were surrounded by a bunch of guys with black suits and were escorted further down the street. Hey how were they to know the guy talking at the Courthouse was Ronald Reagan and the black suits were Secret Service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YaneA Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 So sorry I wasn't there in the Farce's heyday. These reminiscences sound very much like what Hakstol may have meant when he said in today's game day article in the Herald that the team needs a real home ice advantage and crowd atmosphere to feed off in order to beat the stud-heavy Tigers.

These reminiscences sound very much like what Hakstol may have meant when he said in today's game day article in the Herald that the team needs a real home ice advantage and crowd atmosphere to feed off in order to beat the stud-heavy Tigers. And that will never happen with our Saturday night lower bowl crowd. It's horrible.

Brucesky02 Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 That's a classic. I am laughing out loud right now! :-) Here's another: FACE OFF! FACE OFF! RIP HIS FACE OFF! May have to try that one tomorrow...I like it. I'd also like to add that some friends and I tried some stuff this year, but to no avail. Our favorite was chanting "SACRIFICE! SACRIFICE! WE DEMAND A SACRIFICE! (x2) GIVE US BLOOD! GIVE US BLOOD! NOWWWWWWWW!!! Every time an opponent got a penalty. I thought it could be intimidating to come to the box while people chanted for a sacrifice, but I guess people just don't want to be intimidating. Or I'm just crazy.

I'm all for anything, and it's pretty unique, but it's a bit long. Our student section is one sandwich short of a picnic basket, so the simpler the better.

Siouxdonyms Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I remember that one. I'm all for anything, and it's pretty unique, but it's a bit long. Our student section is one sandwich short of a picnic basket, so the simpler the better. I don't blame today's student's, but rather today's society. Today's students have grown up in the world of political correctness, so what happened back in the 70's & 80's at UND would not be allowed today. It's sad, as it made for great college experiences for those students. The new Ralph also contributes to making organization efforts limited. The old Ralph, show up early and get your same seats every weekend...alongside all the other students, with no one behind you to complain you're being to rowdy, interrupting their family time.

Goon Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Like tossing a 3-foot styrofoam puck onto the ice after a Sioux goal. Or tossing a dead goose to celebrate UND's 10th goal of the night in a 10-0 win over CC? (You have to be supremely confident to hang onto that goose waiting for goal #10.) Or the traditional rain of gophers after the first goal of the night. (Some of the old timer Gopher fans here remember their TV and radio guys talking about how it was raining dead gophers.) How big was the goose? Getting that into the arena is no small feat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farce poobah Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 How big was the goose? Getting that into the arena is no small feat. Full size. (Too much shot to be edible.) My roommate was pretty creative. Bib overalls, down vest, Air Force parka. He said the worst part was it was cold, it was frozen ... Dead gophers are too small to really make you feel colder ...

xI Hammer Ix Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I remember that one. I'm all for anything, and it's pretty unique, but it's a bit long. Our student section is one sandwich short of a picnic basket, so the simpler the better. I agree with the students section being a "taco short of a festia" and not origional when it comes to cheers. Same cheers different night, if you can't think of anything someone always defaults to trying to start up "F*** the who-evers." My roommate who works for the Ralph said that the reason the lower bowl was quite on Saturday because someone got removed from the stands for being obnoxious or standing or something of that nature. Whether that's the case I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redarmy Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 I think I recall a live chicken being thrown on the ice during the 2nd period. The student that had the chicken thanked security for not taking the chicken when they walked in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
