Since UofL is new to the Big East, I would like to find out what you guy's do on gameday that is apart of your tradition whether it be a mascot, cheer, etc.
What do you do and how long has it been going on?

At Rutgers there's all the tailgating. Before the game all the players and coaches leave the Hale Center to touch the statue commemorating the first football game before then returning to the locker room. There are sometimes mini-parades involving the Marching Band and others around this time.
During the game, you'll hear alot of: R-U Rah Rah R-U Rah Rah Whoo Rah Whoo Rah Rutgers Rah Upstream Redteam Redteam Upstream Rah Rah Rutgers Rah (the main part of the fight song). We always play the National Anthem followed by the Alma mater (On the Banks of the Old Raritan). The alma mater is also played after each game regardless of win or loss. After every touchdown or field goal we set off a cannon.
