what if some one made a kickass k-state highlight "hype" reel that went #viral to spread the message to people?  that's pretty much how stand up for the champions got started.

think one of panjakes videos last year had SWP in it.  I always meant to make one set to it, but I'm old and have a job and crap.

[DQ12]

that's a very good video SEK.  I like that. 

but if we want this to go #viral it's going to have to have a title change.

If it was up to me, we'd axe the band and just hire Gogol B to do every game. 

But i think a more realistic option (my dream scenario) would be to play the song during pregame the first few weeks.  Get some chatter going among the students ("this song is so weird...what is he saying?  'Start wearing purple?'  Oh.  Man still though - so weird.") until they become familiar with it and take a shining to it.  But ONLY during pregame.

Then, when it's after a Baylor incomplete pass on 2nd and 7 from their own 18 on the first drive of the game, a "so. yeah. ha." belts throughout the stadium and the crowd goes nuts.

After a few more weeks of SWP during games, the band can pick it up.  The fans need to be trained first though before the band starts playing it.

[cas4ksu]

if it were up to me, we'd be playing kenny g before the game.

but that's just me.

[Super PurpleCat]

That polka song was pretty exciting.

Frank would play the crap out of this song

NOT UNTIL THE PEOPLE ARE TRAINED

[cDubya]

 

If this isn't happeningg by midseason I'm gonna be pissed. You guys need to own that song. Hard.

  (how long before I can get one of these with alternating purple/white~~gold/blue??)

[WildcatNkilt]

Can someone send that link to the band instructor guy?  Tell him to do it like this...but louder.

[cas4ksu]

I agree, Dax.

It's a stupid idea/song, that will never be played during a game.

Mods, feel free to lock this thread to cease discussion on such a pointless topic.

This is the greatest band thing I've ever seen (except the movie drumline).  That director is obviously a total stud boss.

[star seed 7]

Also can you imagine 50k rabid emaws yelling "go home!" during a timeout and pointing to the opposing team when they yell it?

SWP has always been a fantastic song and Gogol B an awesome band/guy. This is nothing new. For the AD/ sports marketing department to have ignored this golden opportunity for years now is pretty K-State0.

it's a pretty helpless feeling. such a great idea and would be perfect crowd energizer/tradition.
