Texas and Texas Tech both, was it 3 or 4 seasons ago, TT had to move the student section during a game?
Yes, and it was actually against us in 2021

IMHO, people who load up will always load up at each opportunity
You kidding me right? That song has been a banger for years. Every wedding you go to plays that song. It's the white people anthem.
Well…I actually have a theory on that. I believe that as we become more successful and they become less so, we’re going to “gain” some of their “best” and “brightest”…
Do they sell water bottles in the stadium or let the students carry them in? They could remove caps at time of purchase if selling them
When I was there the last thing on my mind was stay hydrated. Don't remember drinking anything during the game or anyone having bottles in the stands. Get old and I carry stainless steel water bottle everywhere now.

Not to mention that many colleges and pro sports team play it. Hell, doesn't Michigan have a "tradition" of the entire 100,000k crowd singing along to Mr. Brightside? (And yeah, it makes NO sense but f*ck it, great jam!)
Anytime we do something or play a song or 'think' we have started some unique tradition or gameday thing - step back and realize it's more likely we're like the 50th school or team to do it or try it.
Wasn’t there for UCF game, but was in section 28 for ASU and Baylor. Saw full bottles of water being thrown from upper deck in both games. Empty Fireball shooters harmless fun but the full water bottles being thrown is dumb.
Mr Brightside: Over 400 weeks running on the UK Official Singles Chart Top 100, making it the longest-charting single in the UK's history, according to Google.
It seems like it only made an appearance at Jack Trice after a nationally televised Michigan game this fall, which kind of makes us copycats, but whatever.
Yeah, that'll solve the problem. Even more alcohol. What makes you think they won't also load up before the game anyway? Drinkers gonna drink.
I'll say it, that song sucks. I hope it dies a quick death.
I know there are multiple stadiums across the country, no water bottles already.
I am ok with the letter from Pollard. He identified what was either a problem on Saturday or a potential risk in the future. He addressed it by asking us as fans to do better. There are much more draconian measures that could have been taken, or still may be taken, but he is simply asking people for voluntary compliance.
I was waiting for a 15 yard penalty on the crowd. I thought "this is going to be the most ISU way of losing ever."
Yeah who cares? We're not allowed to play a song because another team in a different conference also plays it? Just play songs that people like.
