So are we going to try to do anything different for the Rider game tomorrow night?

Everytime Rider touches the ball, we chant - Rider Rents TRucks, Rider Rents TRucks

The timing of this thread is incredible - I just posted on the topic (in general) in the general NCAA section.
I like Rider Rents Trucks, although "Easy Rider" with the 'ole 5 claps makes sense to me.
Or "You're All Out of Thompsons".

Let's pull out the old Tee Pee Rowdie playbook
- hold up newspapers when they announce the other team and yell "who cares" or "you suck" when they announce the player - stand until first hoop is scored (previously mentioned) - get a band to stand in until school is back in session - get tomahawk chop chant going (just because we were forced to change mascots, doesn't mean we can't do the chop) - replace "find the little blond chef dude" with "find PPC" and win a southwest trip to Baltimore - have a Jimmy Patsos look alike contest or maybe just ranting contest (complete with name dropping)
There are probably more we could add

- stand until first hoop is scored (previously mentioned) This is a quick one that we can implement, but it involves the people on this board being the jerks who insist that their sectionmates join in. How serious are we about it?

given the slow starts lately and the age of the fan base, I'm guessing not too serious. ;-)

WE need to get the guys who throw out the 3point t-shirts to help get the crowd into it.

Assuming that the program is content, what can we do without their help?

Sure wish I could be there, but Olean is just too far away, especially having to work tomorrow, but nothing beats a loud, rowdy student section. Of course, I know school is not in session, but I don't see it on TV when the students are in. I think Jimmy should actually visit the dorms, student halls, etc. He has the personality to drum up interest on his own. Maybe pep rallies would help. (Free beer was the ticket in my day...but sadly, not viable these days). Anyway, good luck with whatever you try...I'll be watching online.

None of this will happen--they don't even chant "defense" or "let's go saints".

How serious are we about it? Don't the geezers do that to start the second half already. I wouldn't want to rain on that parade

Emailed an assistant AD with these suggestions. The response was that the marketing team is aware of what is done at other schools and they don't get a response from the TUC crowd except for the screaming t shirt toss. I tried to make the point about pumping up the team during play not during TOs or media breaks but again was told this was all thought of/tried ( I obviously missed it ) and the crowd wasn't participating. Might add the email response was rather sharp.
