We are St. John’s!

[SJU85]

I am partial to Let’s Go Johnnies! Sorry.

“Let’s Go Johnnies” is a fine chant when rallying the troops or during runs. It does not sound as good or work as well when the game is no longer in doubt with us on the plus side or after a Victory. “We are St. John’s” at the end of a game proclaims in a loud, proud and boastful way who we are and tells the opposition not to ever forget get it.

Wait? What? You mean those posters were only given out after a win or was it to show appreciation for all the university’s mine majors?

Student Government use to send the posters and Pom poms with a Rep to the Garden handed out before the game in the Student Section.

I was being facetious about handing out the posters after the game.

I figured but…my mind is full of useless information from 40 years ago. The Student Activity Committee (SAC) paid for them. Crazy what you remember…

Last night I was with my wife, her childhood friend and her husband. Her friend isn't a sports fan but a good sport, from Queens, uncle has season tickets but didn't go to the school, etc. She went to the Xavier game, loved it. Her only complaint was that she hated the "let's go Johnnies" chants. Main reason was because she thought they said "johnny", which is slang for condom.

Literally laughed out loud and thought of this thread.

None of us knew it either. Looked on urban dictionary and its from 2006, so very useless information. lol

Better than let’s go Trojans

Or Lubricate the Trojans!

This chant was pretty good today!

A couple of weeks away from this.

This chant was pretty good today!

I tried from 111. We need a few more fans committed to it. That crowd was so much fun though. I love this team. We Are…

 

[espken]

MSG scoreboard has to assist on this.
The last media timeout would have been the perfect time.

 

[Moose]

Chant just doesn’t do it for more. Let’s go Johnnies got a lot more juice behind it today.

Well besides the Hurley chant

 

[dk423]

I think its a good end of game chant when we've solidly won the game.

As has been discussed, the We Are …. St.John’s chant is one that should not be used during the course of the game. It should be used when the game is in hand, solidifying the W.

Is that John Travolta and Karen Lynn Gorney in the front row?? Saturday Night Fever; don't touch the hair!

Thought it was Morgan Fairchild LOL

I think it’s good to use at any timeout when we’re on a run. And yes always at the end of the game.
