The Smoking Musket's 10-Point Plan To Clean Up Mountaineer Nation

Guys, we've gotten quite the black eye in the press over the past two days.  A great win over a long-time rival was completely overshadowed by the senseless acts of a few.  Still, though it was a very small minority of troublemakers, steps must be taken to clean up the WVU Coliseum so similar behavior no longer occurs.

Luckily, the think-tank that is The Smoking Musket stayed up all night, brainstorming about ways to show West Virginia University and Mountaineer fans in a more positive light nationwide.  These suggestions were not come to lightly, so please read carefully and provide thoughtful feedback in the comments.  We owe it ourselves to take these matters seriously.

OK, here we go...

Star-divide

  • If you are caught throwing any item on to the court, you will be immediately ejected from the building, and 5th Year Senior gets to sleep with your girlfriend.
  • Mild sedatives and tranquilizers will be added to all concession stand items.
  • Playing of song "Cotton-Eyed Joe" will be banned as it causes Jay Jacobs to become rabid and unstable.

  • When chant of "Kar-en Sy-pher" starts among students, plants in each section will drown it out with a chant of "Mi-chelle Phei-ffer," star of the hit movie Dangerous Minds.  No Coolio will be played, however, as rap music promotes loitering and vandalism.
  • Instead of "Eat Shit Pitt," new kid-friendly cheer of "Digest Feces University of Pittsburgh" will be strongly encouraged.
  • Introduce sliding scale of punishment for profanity. 1st offense: private berating by Huggins.  2nd offense: two minutes on Huggins' treadmill of death.  3rd offense: YMCA guy sits on you for rest of the game. 
  • 5th Year Senior will be required to attend all games barefoot, as it will keep him from throwing his shoes at referees and opposing coaches.
  • Students must now operate on the buddy system, similar to 1st grade field trips.  If a buddy is not available, students must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, just like at PG-13 movies.
  • Before entering the Coliseum, all students must answer three questions (Monty Python-style).  If they get the answers correct, they may enter. Question #1: Did Hot Rod Hundley wear #44?  #2: Does Pitt eat anything other than shit?  #3: Did you use hair gel or axe body spray before the game?  If they answered yes to any of these questions, they are from New Jersey and will not be allowed to enter.
  • Lastly, if you are wear a West "Fucking" Virginia t-shirt to any WVU sporting event, you will be ushered into the bathroom where you will serve as the urinal for that day's home game.

VT threw stuff on court

Twice last night, but your only classless if you go to wvu

by WVEeR on Feb 5, 2010 12:06 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

true...

we do get a bad rap nationally, and many will say that VT got the idea from the classless WVU fans. the problem isn’t that the nation thinks we are classless. the problem is that our own fans (at least all of us on here) think that our fans are classless. we aren’t defending our idiots (and obviously i’m not saying all fans) because we personally are embarrassed to be associated with it.

as far as i’m concerned, the whole nation can kiss my @$$ if i’m personally not embarrassed by it. it’s just like a family. if i’m okay with what is happening under our roof, i don’t care what anyone else thinks about it. the problem is that I/we am/are not okay with our behavior. if every school in the nation threw crap out on the floor, i still would be pissed off that our fans are associated with it. it doesn’t make it any better in my eyes.

PS – going back to the first point of the plan…what if the person throwing stuff on the floor is a girl? does 5th year senior punish her by sleeping with her boyfriend? or do we punish her by having WVIE97 sleep with her? or both?

Couldn't have said it better myself.

im giong to go vincent van goh on myself if people keep talking about fan behavior.

remember browns v. jaguars in 2001 ending with hundreds of beer bottles being thrown at officials? how about the malace at the palace? how about joe medwick being pulled from the field in the 1934 world series? people have been throwing stuff as long as there has been sports and people have had arms. people will throw stuff again in the future.

a couple people threw a water bottles and tshirt and some trash. someone threw a coin. we’re not talking about beer bottles or throwing stars here. and we’re talking like 5 people in a crowd of 15,400 throwing mildly dang can we pleaerous objects at worst. can we please chill out and move on.

Agreed

I’m tired of people acting like this has never happened before, especially at WVU. Some alumni douche wrote a letter-to-the-editor in the DA today saying something along the line of, “We knew how to celebrate wins in the 80s and 90s…” Oh, really? I was at a WVU-Maryland football game in the mid-late 90s where someone was throwing golf balls on the field. And of course there was the infamous trash can incident. I’m too young to remember any of the 80s games, but I’m sure that all of those fans weren’t perfectly well-behaved either. I hate the student/fan behavior and want it to stop, but I’d also like people to acknowledge that shit like this did happen, even in the “good old days.”

by Mountain Mama on Feb 5, 2010 4:03 PM EST up reply actions  

it most certainly happened before, doesn't make it right (not that you said it did)

it’s simply more magnified and amplified due to the increased media coverage, especially the internet

All this is taking attention away from the outstanding performance on the court

Please beat Villanova and take your rightful place in the top 5.
