Where'd it start and what's all this talk?

It's borrowed from Auburn. Several years ago Auburn had beaten Alabama 4 times in a row. They came up with a slogan "Fear the Thumb" which if you count the thumb and 4 fingers you have 5. Nothing the Gamechickens come up with is original.

it was stolen from Auburn.

when they were regularly beating Bama. we've seen how that turned around.

Kinda like "dotting the I" with the tiger band. No one in the country has a tradition of dotting the I, do they! Ohio State???

I know you coots don't normally dot your i's....

Dude, everything about Clemson was stolen from Auburn


Nov 26, 2013, 2:23 PM [ in reply to Re: Someone explain this "thumbs up" stuff. ]

And the fight song and stadium name from LSU.

Laughable.

Let's see...

Tigers was a team vote where the team voted Tigers because of the Princeton Tigers
Colors were from old Auburn jerseys that were faded so they were orange and purple (hardly stolen)
Same architect designed the campuses (hardly stolen)
Clemson is the original Death Valley, LSU's is Death Valley because they couldn't pronounce "Deaf Valley"
Tiger Rag is popular for most schools that have the mascot of a Tiger, and it is a New Orleans jazz song, not from LSU.
