kwyjibo Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 While I did not enjoy the game (a Fordham official told me to "bring this same team back next year") there was a lot of SLU fans there. A few even flew in from St. Louis and were set to go to Broadway shows that night. One group was set to go to "Mamma Mia"! I was off to see "Get Your War On!" (over the top hilarious!) myself but once I combined Abba and Billiken disappointment together I could not help but start humming "Chiquitita". Anyway, how about a thread that combines some of your commentary and perspective from an existing lyric (I suppose slight modifications are OK). It is obvious that people are tired of rehashing the same old commentary so maybe this can freshen it up a bit. The contest winner gets all the virtual Billiken vodka or lemonade they can drink. Chiquitita (excerpt) "So the walls came tumbling down And your loves a blown out candle All is gone and it seems too hard to handle Chiquitita, tell me the truth There is no way you can deny it I see that you're oh so sad, so quiet Chiquitita, you and I know How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving You'll be DANCING once again and the pain will end You will have no time for grieving Chiquitita, you and I cry But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you Let me hear you sing once more like you did before Sing a new song, chiquitita Try once more like you did before Sing a new song, chiquitita" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I thought I hear an "a$$hole" chant from the Fordham stands on TV directed at Luke Meyer when he fouled one of their players. Did I hear that correctly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy03 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I heard the same thing. It was coming from the students. I thought it was kinda funny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I thought it was kinda funny too but I can't see Scottrade letting that happen with the Blue Crew.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenpais Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 That would be interesting to see. Could they actually kick out the entire blue crew section. They would definitely kick out an individual for that chant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwyjibo Posted January 23, 2007 Author Share Posted January 23, 2007 Yes, after Luke got tangled up with one of their players there was the "a--hole" chant from the students at one end. I was surprised I did not here any "FU" cheers. That wasn't the best though. The SLU fans were seated in one section (to give you an idea how small this gym was SLU fans filled all of Section 111). One SLU person came up to the Fordham fan taking up 2 seats next to my wife, showed him her tickets, and received this response "Shut up and sit the f--k down." Welcome to the Bronx!

Supersonic Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Gotta love the Bronx....WOW! I will stick to Manhattan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheA_Bomb Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I think that the FU crowd was on average older than the SLU crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
