I was completely sober during college and remember very differently.
Pretty jealous, actually. I got to live through the tail end of Hawkins, all of Embree, and then the intro of Mike Mac.
I might win the prize for the most Buff PTSD of the group. Outside of 2016, I’ve never seen a good team.
Funny your avatar makes you seem older
My first year as a Buffs fan (and student) was 2008. Cheers.
So did you say ****em up after the fight son?
Every damn time
Just a big Townes fan.
?? There was a different fight song? I guess I must have been drinking more than I remembered.
He means the Hey song.
the fight song has not changed, but I wonder if @alferdpackerd or whatever his handle is will re-emerge to argue the ending is fight fight win.
I blame most of our kicking woes on the fact that we haven’t seen him around here in a while.
He is awesome.
On my phone the tiny avatar picture is hard to see so I have always thought it was this picture until I zoomed in.
That might be even better!
Wait. You're only like 28?
He’s 35. We are ALL 35. Except for Flabuff, who is 34. Dammit, man. How long have you been here and you still don’t know this?
I thought late 40s?
I thought late 30s early 40s
Good Lord. @TSchekler is closer, but still off.
I worked for a few years in emergency response and firefighting before deciding I was ready to head to college.

Oh, right the acronym for "Can't Understand Normal Thinking"! Got it!
So you’re actually 35. Got it
91-95 ****-em up was only at the end of R&R#2. I’ll admit to my memories of that era starting to fade a bit due to hops and bong resin clogging my brain tubes but I’m pretty sure of this because I recall my first “what are these ****ing kids doing??”-old man type thought happening when I heard the students say it after the fight song and I want to say that was in the early 2000’s.
Pretty sure they started when the cup wars stopped due to beer sales being prohibited.
When did the cup wars begin and end? They were not around when I started at CU in 2006.
Expected reply:
Pretty sure they started when the knife wars stopped due to knife sales being prohibited.
I’m asking for years here, spiff!
It was in 2000 I think, maybe 2001.
Marshmallow fights were going strong in the 90s. They were a response to when snowball fights were not possible.
They were going strong through 2001. Sometime in 02-03 they started cracking down on them and it steadily got worse. By 2005 it was over.
