Marshall Dressler, Senior
Bandanas: These guys are as useful as they are stylish. A bandana can keep the sweat out of your eyes, wave through the air in celebration, or hold a broken bone in place for a fallen crowd-surfer.
Props: Fans come equipped with foam paws, flags, beach balls, vuvuzuelas, whistles and air-horns, “Pretty much anything we can throw around or use to make more noise than the other team’s fans,” Dressler said.
Strong Vocal-Chords: Useful for “O”-related cheers including “Oley, Oley Oley Oley!”, “Zombie Nation” by Kernkraft (“Owoaho-woaho-o”), and when things are going good “Sweet Caroline” by Neil Diamond. The “We got Wood!” chant for when senior receiver Jeremy Wood reels in a long ball is another fan favorite.
Bling: Gold chains, medallions, and Mardi-Gras beads around the neck.
Accessories: Capes, shoulder pads, army jackets, referee uniforms, suits and ties, full-body spandex, even Cat-in-the-Hat costumes have been spotted, “It’s about looking as crazy as possible,” Dressler said.
Long Socks: “They’re Stylish, and double as storage for wallet and keys,” said senior Carson Loftus, “No phones though, that would be a distraction.”
Timberlands: “They’re sturdy and protect my feet from getting stomped on,” Dressler said, “Plus, they look fresh.”
