We always said:

Yeah - sounds stupid now that I'm old. That was late 60's, early 70's when I was there.

That made it way past the early 70's. Was well into the 80's and 90's I believe. Always started it at the end of the game before the Scar game. Not sure if they still do it.

I went up to UVA for the 29-28 comeback win.


Jan 18, 2017, 1:46 PM

On the way, we stopped at a rest area and met a UVA grad dressed out in his bow tie and oxfords driving a convertible Mercedes. He was on his way to the game and we struck up a conversation. He was a nice fellow, and after sharing a road soda, he told me his favorite Clemson joke.

He asked me if I knew what the "O" and the "N" in Clemson stood for. I told him "no", and he "said Honor and Knowledge". I thought it pretty funny, even at my expense.

Sorry, not a cheer, but those reminded me of this trip.

"We're gonna shove that ball across the line

When we got sick of the leader doing the cheer we'd chant

I actually think our fan base needs some new cheers or I wish we used some from that list. The cadence count gets old after awhile. I was impressed with Bama fans' wide array of chants. One of their fans jokingly insulted me that all we do is spell things in our chants. I couldn't really disagree.

I had a newspaper clipping on my wall growing up of this cheer/song. while trying to find it, I noticed many schools had a version with different names.

Among the favorite students was Frank Johnstone Jervey, a 1914 graduate
from Charleston. As a cheerleader, he roamed the sidelines, whipping up enthusiasm
with yells and school songs. One of his favorite songs warned,


Don’t send my son to Auburn,
The dying mother said;
Don’t send him down to Georgia Tech,
I’d rather see him dead;
Send him to dear old Clemson,
It’s better than Cornell,
But rather than to USC
I’d see my boy in _ _ _ _ . (“Yale” is a suggested fill-in.)
Hurrah. Hurrah. Hey Clemson.

Re: Old rat cheers

Hubby is trying to remember the words to the song they sang, something like:
Clemson men, Clemson men
We're the Country Gentlemen
Clemson men, Clemson men
We're from Clemson A & M.

There's another one they did that was too dirty to repeat. According to hubs who won't tell me. ( He takes that gentleman thing seriously.)

I kinda got excited and thought everyone was going to write cheers about me...
Alas, it was only a tease.
The one mic cheer I remember most as a student is:
Get the ball!
Get the ball!
Get the #?$& ball!
I always remember thinking, "well, I can't be THAT guy 'cause my dad would beat my tail for saying that in front of all these people"

Re: Old rat cheers

I always liked cheering "Tiger Meat!" instead of booing when the opponent came out or were introduced.

Also, giving the silent treatment until they took their stance then erupting! It's harder to do now with the way plays are called.
