They named the student section when I was in school - think it was the 05-06 season -- anyone else remember that? I know Crean's Crew and Golden Avalanche were options, Golden Avalanche won and was announced as such ... for awhile. There didn't seem to be any plan or equity built into the name and it just faded away (obviously). Hopefully this time around there is a plan in place to keep it going.

Yep, they called it the Gold Rush.  They should not use that one again.

It could be fun to call the section the golden Avalanche. I mean it's like a massive mountain of gold looking over the court.

I confer my blessings.

I think Golden Avalanche is perfect. 

1) It ties into our current nickname with use of "Golden"
2) It ties into our past with our old football moniker
3) When 4,000 strong show up it does actually look like an Avalanche of Gold coming down from the rafters
4) It allows many of us the opportunity to think about the Avalanche Super Bar.

Exactly this.  There is no other acceptable name.

The Stewdent Section.

Now all we need is to fire Wojo and hire a coach named Stew.

And as a signature move, how about an actual golden avalanche?  It would be a similar concept as The Wave, except it would start at the top row and cascade down to the front.
Have some patience, FFS.

The Angry Birds,

or The Rude Birds
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Yes!!! I've always thought that too, the top to bottom Avalanche wave.  How has this not been put in place yet?

And have the Fanatics shirts be long-sleeved, so that all the arm motions would be part of the golden wave.

Considering that people on TV won't see the student section, so they won't see a Golden Avalanche, if it's said on the air, the name won't make much sense.

So I like the Eagle's Nest and the Birdcage.

Wojo's Dojo.

My favorite one so far, even if it is in teal.
