UGA and Miami both do it as well. Pretty lame and common chant.

I dunno. I have heard Tennessee people who claim they started it but I doubt that.

I know Auburn was doing it in the early/mid 1990s.

Not sure who started but I remember leaving the swamp as a kid on my dads shoulders chanting it. Win or loss

honestly, there is no telling. It will almost be impossible to find when each team actually started it.

UF fans have been doing it since the early to mid 80's at least (as far back as I can remember).

UThug's version is something like "It's great...to be...a Tennessee Vol" or something like that.

Since before the 80's is my guess. 70's or older. I am sure it was around in the early 80's.

I like it. Cool chant. I like it that AU has often done it after a loss too. I can remember games from the 80's when AU lost at the last second in a game and the chant would fill the stadium as the game ended and drown out everything else. Made me feel good that at the worst time of a painful loss AU fans were letting everyone know how proud they are to be AU fans no matter what.

Definitely started by AU. Copied by FL and a host of others. Tiger Walk anyone? Just waiting for USCe to have a rooster fly over their stadium pre-game.

I'll believe that when I see some kind of a credible link.

Auburn fans/students were doing that cheer in the late 60's. I know because I was there then. Before that, I don't know.

We started doing the "its great to be from alabama" chant like the ones mentioned. I fricking hate it. Its the worst chant ever, EVER. I wish we'd stop that shite.
