Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Nebraska has to give up the long standing tradition of releasing red balloons after the first TD of each home game.
Nebraska football suspending balloon tradition
My query to you Volnation - if UT had for whatever reason to give up a current standing tradition (for the sake of this argument let's say something we have done for at least 10 years...because we all know third down for what needs to go !!!) what tradition would you not be heartbroken to see leave? Why?
Conversely, is there a tradition so ingrained that it would make you question why you watch Volunteer football if dropped?
Fireworks after a score would need to staySomeone fill me in on what all of the "Traditions" are:
Vol Walk
Running through the T
Playing Rocky Top after every score
Checker Neyland?
Pushups by the cheerleaders after every score. (I could give this one up)
Smokey at the games
tailgating before/after games
scoring 30+ points against FL and still losing
What else are traditions??????
Edit: is "Woo" a Tradition? I know it has been done for over 10 years.
Nebraska gave up releasing red balloons because of Russia. That is about as stupid a thing as I have read in a long time.Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Nebraska has to give up the long standing tradition of releasing red balloons after the first TD of each home game.

I would like to see us return to the team actually running through the entire T and not just one part of it . If that requires us to move the locker room again so be it.AGREE - running through the T should be reserved for players, coaches, special visitors (have seen veterans and active military allowed to run), and maybe one or two cheerleaders / flag bearers at the lead.
