WOW...university administrators ban the band's traditional War Chant at Illinois games!

This politically correct bullcrap is really getting out of hand.




The War Chant has always been played by the band at Illinois football games in order to fire up the Illini fans and players whenever the opponent's offense is faced with a 3rd down.

Now, it will never be heard again at Illini sporting events....because Illinois school administrators don't want to offend Native Americans. Are you fooking kidding me?

Illini end 'war chant' song at sporting events


WTF is happening to this country?


Again.... no more of this on the opponents 3rd down at Illinois football games:

It's what happens when the school hires the mentally challenged to run things.

Mike Osceola, then Chief of the Seminole Tribe of Florida, said it best when speaking before
the NCAA Committee on forcing schools to remove Indian names.

"This is nothing more than the White man telling the red man what's good for him."

We lost the Chief many years ago. Let's go, Illinois Flatlanders.

Yes, I have duo fandom. Spent near 40 years in Wisconsin and took a job down here. 25 minutes to Memorial Stadium and I take advantage of it.

Does Illinois still use the very cool war drum entrance for the football team, or has that been stopped too?





Another view of the Fighting Illini war drum entrance from the tunnel.....it's starts at the 34 second mark of the following video. I would not be surprised if the dumb-ass school administrators also stopped this practice:




Again, does anybody know if the Illini still do the war drum entrance?

I wonder how long before they start attacking Disney.

They still used it the last time I went to a game.

Liberal fascism gets called-out again and again, but they never seem to get it. I guess they get their jollies from taking what they think is a superior, enlightened viewpoint to such an extent, they don't even understand when the stupidity of that viewpoint is thrown in their faces.

 

[olympicoscar]

I always liked that war chant. Oh well, times have changed I guess. Maybe too much pc.

 

[NolePride]

Cool traditions. Bad for things like that to vanish.

Certainly looked to me like they were honoring the tribe...but what the hell do I know.

Probably doesn't matter anymore...their entire state will be bankrupt within another
couple of years, even though they are doing everything in their power to murder everybody
in Chicago.

Maybe I'm just being cynical but I believe Illinois has a great many more issues that need to be
addressed quicker than some guy dressing up as an Illini Indian Chief before a sporting event.

Political Correctness Is A Right-Wing Myth

Band should go out on to the field and just stand there

That would be funny

[droider]

Dogshit university and cesspool of a state, burn it down.

 

[Golden Spur]

[broncosmitty]

Drinking, making bad agreements with the government and manufacturing dream catchers?


Yeah, prolly.

 

[navamind]

Band should go out on to the field and just stand there

That would be funny

it would mirror what their football team does

 

[broncosmitty]

When was the last time Illinois football had a two page thread?


(Never shoulda fired Coach Cubit.)

 

[AlaskaGuy]

Drinking, making bad agreements with the government, tax free casinos, and manufacturing dream catchers?

Yeah, prolly.

FIFY
