I was told by a kid in a big south T-Shirt during the match tonight...

"Enough with the 'Eat More Chicken' chant, out Tournament Director said to stop."

Are you SERIOUS?

I am getting sick and tired of this.

The rules were nothing "vulgar, sexual, or racial".

That doesn't fit into any of those.

Who is the tournament director, Mickey? I find it hard to believe he would have said something.

Rome was not built in a day...and it will take a while to change the on-campus attitude towards things. Look at how far we've come in just the past two years.

I am hoping it isn't someone LU affiliated...

Should I e-mail JB about this?

Well I won't be there tomorrow, there are pressing issues in Boiling Springs to tend to.

I just hate that we have no freedom at sporting events. It's starting to irk me.

Well I don't know how it "used to be"

But I grew up a Bucs fan, where profanities and racial slurs were hurled at opponents, and members of our team, several times a minute.

How it used to be...

...well-meaning fans coming down out of the stands to pray for and laying hands on...an injured OPPOSING PLAYER!

Yikes...I guess they didnt like what I was yelling when the place was silent during the 10 minute confusion brought to you by tonights officials

It's going to get interesting on our side tomorrow, those WU fans are loud and dont like it when you yell for your team...it got a little touchy tonight and they werent even involved in our match

Yo bro,

I was wondering what happened, i was sitting with my friend and we were wondering what was going on...

You weren't wrong at all... Chicken is good and we ate some for sure tonight 3-0... My friend was telling me she has been a jerk to our (LU) staff about stuff for this tourney, he works with the athletics dept. Sorry you had to go through that trouble tonight
