"Streets" to return Saturday?

[lab_warrior]

Personally I hate the Fatboy Slim intro...thank god...bring back Streets have no name!!

Well, ugly W today, but 6-0 in the BE.  AND Streets returns.

So was having Streets back a really big deal???????

I didn't notice any difference in the upper levels.

There was definitely a buzz in the lower level.  I heard one kid scream "FINALLY!" when it came on.  I feel like, at the very least, the crowd knows how to react to Streets vs. Fatboy.  Everyone just kind of sits on their hands during Fatboy.  The "We Are Marquette" chant was the loudest it's been since last year, I think.

Happy to have it back, but the crowd response was almost identical.  I guess that says keep the "streets" as it makes more people happy, but to pretend that there was a palpable difference in the crowd isn't accurate.

Wow, totally disagree.  I thought the crowd response was noticeably more enthusiastic during Streets.

The WE ARE .. MARQUETTE chant was 10x what it was for any of the prior games this year .. began far earlier, far louder, went on longer.  There were a few games the chant didn't even start!

Pretend?  Hogwash.

There was also an additional 5,000 fans in stands.  Not to mention the additional students who weren't at any of the previous Big East games this season.

I like the "streets" intro better, but this is blown out of proportion.  There wasn't nearly as much energy as many games from past seasons (I wish I knew why this was the case, as this team has been delightful). 

Streets is better but about a 3 on 100 point scale of importance.

When it played today, I asked the guys around me if it had been the first time all season it played. They seemed to think it had been around all year. Thanks for confirming that it hadn't. It was great to hear it return!

I still don't understand why they're not using the Pray video, and then playing whatever music underneath the actual introductions.
