I know that I have brought these up before, but here are a few things I would like to see:
1. I would like to see the return of the Penguin Kamikaze flags, instead of the American flag being carried out by the team. I can see carrying the US flag in a game in November, to honor our vets. However, outside of that, to me it is almost insulting to the US flag. Reminds me of the south , when they used to run out with the confederate flag. The Kamikaze flag should be done in one of two ways:
a) one for each win of the season. Or,
b) 4, representing our 4-titles.
2. I wish the Pride would go back to more traditional music. I mean, if one wants to hear Journey, they just need to turn on the radio to any classic-rock station. Marches and instrumental pop are things you only get to hear at games. Certainly you can do a more pop-piece (especially in concert formation), but not rock music. I fell like I am watching a high-school band.
3. there is one exception to #2. Please go back to playing the "Mighty Quinn" by Manfred Mann. The band should play it in the stands, and on the field. The speakers should play it when they want to get the crowd going. As "Hang on Sloopy" is to the Buckeye fans so should "Mighty Quinn" be for Penguin faithful:
They would need to show the lyrics a couple of times up on the scoreboards, but it goes:
"Come all without, come all within, you'll not see nothing like the Mighty Guins".
Of course the original uses the word "Quinn" (as opposed to 'Guins'), we just modify the one word. I know that Bob Dylan did this, but Manfred Mann did a much more popular version.
Any thoughts? Anything else you would like to see?
