'Automatic'

[🏀]

Hey students, worst chant ever. Especially when Gardner misses his first two free throws. Just don't cheer during Marquette free throws.

[TallTitan34]

It's not all students, just a group of about 10-15 people in section 431.

I agree.  SHUT THE HELL UP when Marquette is shooting free throws.

Seriously. They must be meatball Bears fans that cheer at Soldier Field as well.

I feel like the students yelling "sit down" to the FSU player that fouled out caused Jae to miss a free throw at the end, haha.

Low blow. Keep the Bears outta this!

Pretty sure Jae wasn't here yet when we last played FSU

And agreed on "automatic". Horrible chant, people in my section were yelling at them to shut up.

Just trying to relate the level of terrible.

Whether they're meatball Bear fans or meatball Packer fans they should shut up when Ox is shooting free throws. He missed his first 2 badly while those morons chanted.

[TallTitan34]

I noticed they did it in the Louisville and Pitt games as well.

Please stop.

lol, total brain fart there

Really? This was the first time I'd heard it...  Right when Davante missed 2 straight free throws.  The stupidity of the chant makes me wonder if this has any ties to the Spanish ODs.  I did like the Scott Walker shout out though.

First time as well. Just knock the crap off or Jim Nas needs to pay them a visit.

Didn't hear this either of those games, but it surely was embarrassing tonight. Definitely originated with some idiots in the 400 level. I tried to start boos directed at them after Davante missed his first two, but I didn't get great reception from those around me. I think if they try to do it again there will be enough hostility amongst students that it'll be stopped.

[wardle2wade]

Nope, I still heard them on espn3 late in the 2nd half for DG's free throws.  Believe he made them both? 

The chanting has to gotta stop... no good comes from it.  Can't imagine anyone thinks it's a good idea to chant during your own player's free throws... probably started by a few "bros" or attention wh--es and some lemmings follow along. 

[TallTitan34]

It definately wasnt the first time they've done this. They always sit halfway up section 431. I'm three or four sections over so I always hear them.

I believe I saw MUAhoya06 try to wave them off as well.

WTF is wrong with them?  DG's FT% is a whopping 74%.   

Maybe they are chanting "Auto-Matic" and then real quiet "exceptonequarterofthetime"?

[4everwarriors]

74% is as close to automatic as any one on this team is gonna get. On second thought, Ox kinda looks like Novak.

The cheering reminded me of the idiot Giants fans sitting around me at the last Packer game. Even in the first half, before the game was out of hand, they got all excited when Packers fans were cheering loudly on a Giants 3rd down and started cheering along with us. Too bad their team was smarter than their fans.

They were cheering because they knew the softness of the GB defense.

So much for the students not having an impact. 

[MerrittsMustache]

That whole "Left. Right. Sit down!" thing is pretty stupid anyway and needs to go. It's been played out for years and it doesn't even work because the guy who fouled out stands in the huddle and then mills around for a while. It also causes the 15% of students who are actually paying attention to the game to stop paying attention and do things like scream right as Crowder is shooting a FT.

Awesome, bro.  Make sure to high-five the fellow bro's if Gardner makes it.  Feign disbelief to your bro-mates is he misses.  This joke will never get old.

Signed,
an actual Bears fan who doesnt use teal.


Side-note... this is what happens when we feed the bro's by giving them attention... myself being guilty of it.  You get "bro" responses from a gimmick account like the one this hipster bro just did.  The only reason I assume bro's like these even go to games is to be noticed or for attention... starting a chant in the upper level, only leads me to believe they enjoy being ironic... a classic hipster bro-tendency.

One very important lesson here... Don't feed the bro's.

None of this would be relevant if Gardner shot 100% like NBA Jam.  When he missed those two free throws last night, I believe that was a sign maybe chanting's not a good idea.

Precisely the type of response that I expected from that group of idiots. It got to the point that we were secretly hoping DG would miss his free throws just to shut those morons up...clearly that didn't work. I guess we will have to find another means to shut them up vs Seton Hall. See you bros then.
