[FriarJ]

Narrator: and even Taylor Swift couldn't help Providence advance in the NCAA tournament.

Not past Kansas in the sweet 16

Don’t we have a marketing arm at UConn that can be creative with things such as music, halftime entertainment, not running a bush league $2 beer night, giveaways? Why would the athletic department run this stuff

A large number of universities run $2 beer nights. They run them because they have proven profitable. Calling them bush league is not a good way to convince people you know are familiar with successful marketing promotions.

Not to mention that the home crowd advantage becomes even more pronounced on those nights. Worth it.

She actually wrote a nice note to the team and congratulated them on their year.

He's enjoying himself, I guess. I do laugh when PC fans hate on him though. Thin skinned people everywhere, not just filling this board.

By bush league I meant promote this event and run out of beer a 1/2 hour before tipoff. How friggin cheap can you be.

I soooo hope this song becomes a thing at UConn games.

Wow. Read the friar fan comments and they all need serious therapy. Appears we’ve caused a mental health crisis with their fanbase. Hahahaha

 

[aburks41]

It’s hilarious that PC fans think that the whole world knows they play Taylor Swift at their home games. No one outside of New England even has any clue Providence basketball exists lol

I know, that's super cute of her to do for her Swifties.

Blasphemy

Not to pile on with the OP, but the student section at Allen Fieldhouse was doing this when we played them 12.1.23. Sounds like UConn marketing is stealing corny ideas from multiple fanbases

My wife says if UConn plays their cards right then they can get her to break up with PC and like UConn instead. Then she can write a song about it.

“You heard of this thing, the 8-Minute Abs?
Yeah, this is going to blow that right out of the water. Listen to this: 7… Minute… Abs.
Think about it. You walk into a video store, you see 8-Minute Abs sittin’ there, there’s 7-Minute Abs right beside it. Which one are you gonna pick, man?”

This is the kind of thinking the athletic department marketing team needs.

 

[HuskyHawk]

So stupid. They played like 4 straight singalong type songs that are played in hundreds of arenas. They also played Mr Brightside. Is the Michigan message board bent?

The crowd was great last night. Lots of electricity, students were A+. Fun night to be there. Anything else is a wet blanket.

Michigan? I think there’s an Irish Wake that might be upset.

 

[JMick]

I'm confused. We played a song. Did we instruct the crowd to sing along or did they do it themselves? I'm not sure anyone has a monopoly on...singing.

NCAA presented UConn a trophy last year.

Different accomplishments.

You know why that luck ran out right?

 

[Dandy]

Blasphemy

Maybe it was where I was sitting but the audio for some of the things they played including this was absolutely awful with distortedly loud bass.

 

[FriarJ]

I know, that's super cute of her to do for her Swifties.

LOL, I thought something similar about those giant guys holding that note like it was important.

 

[FriarJ]

You know why that luck ran out right?

Because they were the best team in CBB and won the title? We played hard. I was happy with the effort.

BTW, I struggle how to perceive or understand Husky fans who also root for Kansas. We have one of those idiots too.

I've been doing this with my buddies for every celebration since the movie. It has been the theme of every bachelor party I've been in since 2015. It's doesn't have to be original it just has to be awesome. This was awesome.
