If we change it, there will be people on here complaining about the new one.We have 16 people in our group of season ticket holders. Not one of us likes it. I cannot think of anyone who says anything about it before the game, or says, " Oh here they come watch" No one cares or they think it is terrible. It is really tough to watch, I mean some of the people out there can barely make it across the field, it is an embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really tough to watch, I mean some of the people out there can barely make it across the field, it is an embarrassment.This is exactly my point... I have yet to meet someone who is not directly associated with it who likes it... If you're not a cheerleader then you shouldn't be out there... While I agree that the running with the bulls may not be totally accurate and it needs to be explained more...it is freaking awesome!I was on the field for the game against UNC after we beat auburn and then the captain at the WV friday night sellout! What a freaking rush. you here and see stuff in that tunnel that is awesome plus having WV trash talk you and saying they are all great was fun too. And then to top it off i got interviewed by jenn sterger right before the run.It is an awesome experience for the students. tradition is made though repetition. We can;t keep changing it.Thank you for proving my point... There's a captain???? Seriously?? If you're a student and want to start a tradition then get 20 of your friends to actually go to the game rather than sit in the mall lot and drink all game.
