power towel improvements thread

[fatty fat fat]

1)Do it before opening kickoffs, kickoffs after a KSU TD. When the crowd is nuts.
2)The song/chant is EXCELLENT! Do not change it!
3)Dump the willie guitar for simple KSU football highlights.

Thoughts?

you could make the towel pink and put a rainbow on it with two well-dressed, clean, white guys butt-&@#%ing on it, then it would be only slightly more gay

1.Towels, while they seem lame now, will be f*cking awesome when everyone is going nuts. I honestly think it will give more people an incentive to yell, which has been lacking quite a bit the last few years.

I'd rather see them saved for defense though, and keep with the keys on the kickoffs.

2. Song/chant is ok in my book. It's sort of catchy, but I don't think it's going to catch on with enough people for it to be very cool.

3. Dump willie if we stick with this song, but if they picked the right song willie could pull it off.

Good thoughts.

Towels **ARE** awesome when everyone uses them. Sorry Josh, but I don't think I'll remember to bring them every game!

Chant is great. The catching on thing is huge. It would help if the ferternity/sortitty people would do it, everyone pretty much follows them.

Yes.

[eRod v1.0]

Towels = good
Chant = good
Video = ok (agree with highlights)
Posters like VDMD trying to bash us = gay

1) Agreed, could turn into some more great tradition the Bill is known for. I still dont get it. Do we buy the towel or will they be given to us on saturday??

2) Agreed. That could be intimidating after we score or before a kick-off. Another great tradition other schools would copy us. Prince's idea?

3) Football highlights would be nice. Just get the fireworks and willie guitar stuff out of there.

Since there's no stopping this abortion of a "tradition", I'd say do the following:

1 - keep the towels
2 - ditch the video, it's f'ing terrible and if I was part of the AD office that came up with that video and the graphics contained within it, I'd kill myself.  Put highlights instead.
3 - I guess you could try to play it before kickoffs.  I'd suggest before the 4th quarter in place of "The band is hot", but in all honestly, "the band is hot" is less gay than this video/chant.

Horrific video aside.  You don't really like that chant do you?  I just watched the video with my eyes closed and I still couldn't stop laughing.

Ditch the whole thing.  Use the towels.  Use the chant you always do...K-S-U Wildcats...K-S-U Wildcats

If that were my university I would be on an 24/7 email campaign to get that abortion off my university website.

But if you like it more power to you.  Just know, that I will point and laugh when you do it during the ku/K-State game.

Other things to provide incentive to yell:
1. Fewer interceptions
2. Fewer fumbles
3. More touchdowns
4. More wins

From what I have witnessed over the past few years, the fans in the stands and their lack of enthusiasm and lack of a "signature" cheer/towel waving have not affected the outcome of a single game.  Whatever happened to the Prince philosophy of fans don't block, fans don't tackle, etc.

This is worse than Blue Wings Rising and that is saying something.

1. forget that video ever happened.

Great thoughts, someone with excellent grammar needs to send a very tactful email to Prince imploring him to get rid of the video and keep the chant.

You guys are forgetting the best time to use the towel= 3rd down.

Do you know what the problem is with the power towel?.......Nothing, not a God Damned thing.

I don't think the towel is the issue.  It boils down to being the video for the new chant.  That video needs to go now, or we'll be the laughing stock of CFB.

you could make the towel pink and put a rainbow on it with two well-dressed, clean, white guys butt-fracking on it, then it would be only slightly more gay

QFT. Funniest and lamest thing I've ever seen at a college football game.

I'm going to e-mail Ron Prince about this.  He seems to be pretty serious about this kind of thing.  I am going to make a request that Willy turns it up to eleven.

Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and...
Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?
Nigel Tufnel: Exactly.
Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?
Marty DiBergi: I don't know.
Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven.
Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.
Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to eleven.

You've seen pink towels with two guys butt-fracking on it at a CFB game??  Was it a home game nubb?

No, never seen that...but wondering if even that would be as gay as your whole "power towel" schtick.

It's pretty appropriate that you wear homosexual purple.

I bet you've never even seen Spinal Tap you son of a bitch.

[JesusShuttlesworth]

I can't believe that so many of you are missing the complete brilliance of this "New Tradition" video put out by the AD! 

If they decided to play it safe and put out a respectable video, nobody would be talking about it.  Since they decided to push the envelope and make it ridiculous, EVERYONE is talking about it.  Fans of other schools are all over it.  Our fans are all over it.  Its on fracking youtube for crying out loud. 

kudos to whoever in the AD thought this up.  Crazy?  Crazy like a fox!

[Fledermaus]

Who did we copy the cheer from?

[sonofdaxjones]

I never thought "Blue Wings Rising" could be topped for shear asshat stupidity, but I'll be damned if KSU didn't do it.   On the bright side, this wasn't a major dollar campaign like "Blue Wings Rising".

I'm just callin' it like I see it.  You said you've seen it at a college football game.  I was just wondering where.  I know it wasn't MHK, so where?

I have to agree with you here. Both the chant and the video must go. I thought maybe it was just the video at first, but no, the song and chant are pretty gay too. The song has a driving beat, which would be nice, perhaps... however the whole song, guitar, and tune is too gay.

This is rather embarassing.


The whole towel thing is fine... they'll just have to promote it right so it will catch on.  However, here's hoping we never hear about the song/chant again.
