I think I have it now. We keep up with the trends by updating the playlist with the old traditions.

I FULLY SUPPORT THE ERADICATION OF ALL NEIL DIAMOND SONGS DURING MONTANA STATE BOBCATS HOME FOOTBALL GAMES
The Sweet Caroline bit between the 3rd & 4th quarter is frankly embarrassing. This needs to be replaced with another song. Many suggestions posted above would be a drastic improvement.

Re: It's the planning season...
Good luck with that. I personally don't care for it, but the number of people that participate would indicate that more like it than not. If I was changing anything it would be rock this house.1984TwoMinutesHate wrote:I FULLY SUPPORT THE ERADICATION OF ALL NEIL DIAMOND SONGS DURING MONTANA STATE BOBCATS HOME FOOTBALL GAMES

Re: It's the planning season...
They increased the tempo of "Rock This House" this past season, and that helped a little bit, but I have enjoyed it much more since I began using "Rock Paper Scissors" for the chant.allcat wrote:Good luck with that.

They should keep speeding it slowly until it is going so fast that it flies into the dumpster. I've never been a fan and yet each year it finds its way back.

Re: It's the planning season...
I agree, so it must have a sponsor that likes it, but I can't remember the name of the sponsor.joe_montana_state wrote:They should keep speeding it slowly until it is going so fast that it flies into the dumpster. I've never been a fan and yet each year it finds its way back.

Re: It's the planning season...
The Ridge chant is pretty silly, but it is a high visibility sponsorship opportunity and as long as the check keeps coming into the MSU Athletic Department every year it won't be going away, nor should it!bobcatozzy wrote:I agree the Ridge chant has to go please.

Re: It's the planning season...
I'm all for high visibility sponsorship but don't you think as a sponsor you'd want it to be something everyone enjoys? Rock. This. House. feels forced. If it were my business I'd want it to be something that engages the crowd and gets everyone pumped up....not forced.MSU01 wrote:The Ridge chant is pretty silly, but it is a high visibility sponsorship opportunity and as long as the check keeps coming into the MSU Athletic Department every year it won't be going away, nor should it!bobcatozzy wrote:I agree the Ridge chant has to go please.

It is the worst chant in the history of chants! It is an embarrassing failure every time they try to do it. I remember once I looked down at the opposing teams sideline, and all their players were laughing.bobcatozzy wrote:I agree the Ridge chant has to go please.

Re: It's the planning season...
I'd want it to be something everyone remembers. I couldn't tell you who sponsors the Kiss Cam or Rock Cam or Simba Cam or whatever but I know darn well that it's the Ridge sponsoring the Rock This House chant. Perhaps they could keep the general idea but rework the chant into something less awkward like "Montana State Bobcats" or "Let's go Cats"joe_montana_state wrote:I'm all for high visibility sponsorship but don't you think as a sponsor you'd want it to be something everyone enjoys?

Re: It's the planning season...
Hate to say it, but the fact that both you and I know the Ridge sponsors Rock This House, yet have no idea who sponsors the others, proves the Ridge is getting their money's worth.MSU01 wrote:joe_montana_state wrote:I'm all for high visibility sponsorship but don't you think as a sponsor you'd want it to be something everyone enjoys?

Re: It's the planning season...
The other side of the coin on this whole discussion about Rock this house is that it's not real good business sense to be too critical of a good sponsor like the Ridge has been.joe_montana_state wrote:I thought annoying your customer base with your advertising campaign only worked if you were selling used cars!The Big Meowski wrote:Hate to say it, but the fact that both you and I know the Ridge sponsors Rock This House, yet have no idea who sponsors the others, proves the Ridge is getting their money's worth.MSU01 wrote:joe_montana_state wrote:I'm all for high visibility sponsorship but don't you think as a sponsor you'd want it to be something everyone enjoys?

The faster tempo of the cheer has helped and until any of us fans are willing to match their check amount maybe we should at least use a little more tact.
Again just good business sense. The Ridge having handed over money to us makes them the customer here and as has been said it's not wise to piss off your customer.
