If you see fellow volunteer fans what do you say?

Go Big Orange!
Other teams use this,
"Go Big Blue" for Michigan and
"Go big Red"for Nebraska

How 'bout them VOLS!
Everybody uses this one as well.

Are there other ones that only we can use that are more unique like the ones below?


*The Gator Chomp is a nationally recognized gesture made by fans of Florida.
*Hook 'em Horns is the slogan and hand signal of Texas.
*Auburn fans just have to say "War Eagle."
*Alabama has "Roll Tide."

Those are the only ones I could think of from other schools, are there more?

Maybe we could lick our thumbs and make a gesture like wiping a musket sight. If you haven't seen Gary Cooper as Alvin C. York this will not make sense.

We just say "Go Bears" when another alumn walks by. Not too exciting. The A&M fans are certainly an interesting lot.

My brother in law and a great grandfather (now deceased) are Baylor alum and they do/did use the Bear paw, often accompanied with a Grrrrr sound. The A&M Gig 'em and Hook 'em Horns signals are far and away the most used though.

Some guy invented a hand signal for UT. It was in the Sentinel about four years ago. It was basically just the shocker, but if you looked at your fingers, it sort of looked like they spelled Vol. Derrick Tinsley did it in a photo in Sports Illustrated on Campus, and they were going to use it as the cover, but they didn't feel putting the shocker on the cover was a good idea. Thus, the cover was instead some shirtless dude with a Power T on his chest.

ASU uses the shocker as a symbol which is supposed to be a devil's fork i guess. Koetter during their sun bowl win flashed it on national television. Many of us found that rather amusing.

What was amusing? A Sun Bowl win or the shocker on TV?

Trust me, if you went to the Outback Bowl like I did this past year, you know by now what Penn St. fans do. Every 2 seconds around Tampa or at the game the Penn St. fans would say "We are" and then others would say "Penn St." At the end, the first bunch says "Thank you" and the others say "you're welcome." It's cool the first couple times, but after about 500 times of hearing that at the parade and the game, I was so sick of it.

Ohio St. fans will say "OH" to another fan and the response would be "IO".
