Loved the two Cab Calloway music videos during the game and thought the crowd instantly got into it! Hi De Hi De Ho! This should become a staple at home games!
So need some old timers to chime in, I think I remember going to games in the early 90s and them playing this. My sister remembered for sure she was at ISU from ‘92-‘95.

Can we have the Hamms beear song back too???? Asking for a friend.

Thought the atmosphere was electric once we had the two PIs called against us. Angry ISU fans bring it.

Sure, variety is fine. But she's awful. Variety by including awful isn't a good thing. I could run out on the field, drop my pants, and take a dump on the turf. It's variety, but it wouldn't be good.
Depends if it was pre game or post game and if we won or lost.

It's about as cringe as it gets. Of course our corny ass fanbase embraced and celebrates that dumbass dance. It's a tradition, and kids and grandparents seem to love it, but why do we always have to do the most embarrassing ****?

I die a little more inside every time the dance ends with jazz hands "woo"....JFC
Getting emotionally invested in watching a bunch of kids play a game is cringe and corny yet I still love it just like the Juicy Wiggle. It's sports get over yourself.

She's just awful. She's probably under a season long contract, but she's a mistake. Like the bugle tornado logo, and like the farm family Cy-Hawk trophy, she needs to go away and only be talked about in cautionary tales.
Wasn’t impressed with her.

Going from crap to trash is an improvement.

I don't think there is anything she can do after her abomination of a performance at that first game that can earn my acceptance. That probably says a bit about me as well, but so be it.
Yeah, it says something about you. It was new for her too at the first game. Mike was cranked too high, she was over-the-top enthusiastic and ear-piercingly loud.

Clearly someone had a conversation with her, worked with her, and she listened and adjusted. She has been much better in the subsequent games. If you can't recognize that, maybe you could at least stop ripping her apart unjustly?

Love Juicy Wiggle, hate the choreographed dance. Wish everyone would just let loose, go nuts, and for night games get their phone flashlights out to light up the stadium.
Interesting. For my part, that's exactly what I see happening. Some do the dance moves, some just rock out. Others do the cell phone thing. I see nothing wrong with all of the above. It's unique to us and I love it for that as well.

It was said more in jest than it reads. Like I said, it's fine. It's just so typical ISU to latch on to an awful song with a worse choreographed dance. I was there when it started. I have fun when it's played. I love nothing more than being at an ISU game. But come on, it's sooooo bad.

And now I’m going to old person complain….I am in the NW corner of the stadium and the speakers are really, really loud. I wish they could dial it back maybe 5%. Oh well!
I was in H near the SW corner, and it was damn loud there. I feel for you.

Also the sound production crew needs to pay attention to the game and turn the music off when the referee is announcing a penalty, like he did with the offsides/out-of-bounds penalties on the kickoff after one of Baylor’s TDs. Not a clue as to what he said there with the music still blaring.

I would be surprised if there wasn't software running that's supposed to do that as soon as the ref turns on their mic.

I would love to know why the feedback is so terrible in stadium on the referee announcements.

Love the 4th quarter intro video…need to start it a bit earlier to get it all in. the Smoke on the Water cover by 2WEI is a great kickoff lead in after the first score. All in all, better music all around.

The Blues Brothers is my favorite movie of all time. More of this please.
Our bartender and server at Wallaby's didn't know what "orange whips" meant and hadn't heard of the Blues Brothers and my group felt very old as a result on Friday night. And then they were on the big screen on Saturday. That was weird.
