We do. Look over your shoulder.
With all due respect to the old guard, I'm not a fan of looking at empty seats. One thing you can't fault the students for is showing up. They're packed in like sardines every game and they've been staying till the bitter end moreso than older folks as of late.

Anyway, the young alumnus is CLEARLY the best sort of fan of all. :D

Row GGG at all home games. Won't miss an away game this year either. We even stand up and cheer ... without having to be crude about it. See you at The Rock.
If serving is beneath you, then leading is beyond you.

If you see empty seats in our area, come on up. Even our four and a half month old grandson made it to 0:00 for the Charleston Southern game. We're raising him right.

I respect that because i was raised the exact same way but this "hating" on the students needs to stop when the "older" fans are doing the same stuff

I was glad to see so many students stay to the very end last week. Of course, I know they stayed because I could see them from my seat (more like a stand :D ). Cool thing is that I was sitting with 4 alums (3 from 2009; 1 from 2011) and their very small children. I hope those little ones are still safe from garbage in the sanctuary of The Rock in the years ahead.

No hating students here. It's the unified classless "cheer" that I don't like in the least.

Well i am not a fan of walking up to see my family and hearing the "older" people talking just as bad to our own players

What is a Gadsden flag or the significance?

Of course I'm assuming there is in fact a comma. It would be pretty weird if that was not the intention of the students and they were getting really graphic/specific.
I believe there is a comma. you can hear it in the inflection of their voices. a slight pause if you will

It has become quite popular in our current state of socialism.

I'm 31...for another 6 days...and all I'll say is that you're quite sensitive for a young buck. Who is hating on the students? Is it hating to say that chant is in poor taste? :lol: Unless you support using a classless chant, there is no need to get defensive, this is about being disappointed that people behave in such a manner.

As for older fans "saying the same thing," if a grown man is saying the same thing that is in that chant then he's not a man. That's a childish thing to do, and someone needs to let that guy(s) know. I've been fortunate to have the same people sitting in our section since 2006, and all are top-notch alums.
