VPI Entrance

RealClearSports - Top 10 College Football Entrances - 1. Exit Light, Enter Night

I have to admit, I do love the Hokies entrance into the stadium. It's pretty cool to have 65k jumpin up & down at the same time. It does get loud in there. I imagine this will be the scene in the GA Dome on Sat night.

With that being said, they can have the cool entrance, we'll take the win.

They won't be able to enter the field like that on Saturday night since it's a neutral site game, but I do miss Ron Franklin's voice!

Not sure about that... last year even being neutral site, I think they did each team's home entrance video/production. I seem to remember our's being the same and Clemson having a production centered around Howard's Rock?

I have to say, nothing sends a chill down my spine more than hearing the crowd go nuts when the video screens in BDS cut to the locker room doors. Watching Saban lead the troops down the tunnel and onto the field like that is an experience like no other in college football.

Hmm, now that you mention it I do remember us showing our pregame videos. Sorry

They ran each school's video during the warm-ups but then they entered like a road game... band just played the fight song.... not that you could hear a THING in that place with all of us screaming.

I have to say... the Clemson game last year was one of my favorite experiences. You couldn't have made a cleaner 50/50 split if you had snapped a chalk line down the middle of each endzone... Looking forward to more of the same Saturday.

I agree. The production in the GA Dome is always so good. It's become one of my favorite places to watch a game(besides BDS), especially compared to the SuperDome.

Well, they should be jumping up and down at the beginning.

Let's just hope that that is all the jumping and shouting they get to do.

Roll Tide Roll!!!!

 

[64met]

being the "metal head" that I am... I have to admit (Metallica) my fav band VT has a great entrance! That song is just incredible (especially if U R a metal head). Although Bama started using Thunder; correct from AC DC? Is there a video of our boys coming out of the tunnel to Thiunder?

RTR!!!

 

[CrimsonJag]

I guess that's why opinions are like elbows - most everybody has two.

Personally, I think the jumping up and down is goofy.

Nevertheless, RTR.

 

[Tguy64]

Probably will be the same, although, today I got two tics for some Bama fans on the VT side of the field. Just hope that after the game, when the band finishes playing that we can hear "Sweet Home" with the "Roll Tide" as loud as it was last year.

I just wish we'd play something other than AC/DC while our guys are exiting their lockerrooms... something like Enter Sandman!

PS: Perfect comparison as far as entrances are concerned:

i encourage bama fans to join in the jumping..it will only add to the excitment of the entrance and feel of the game.

So....copy Tech?

 

[rhYno]

So....copy Tech?

Forgive me... something Metallica-ish. Something other than AC/DC at least.

Oh ok. Something similar to Enter Sandman. I gotcha. I read it wrong.

This is why said awhile back that I wish this could have been a home-and-home. I know you guys have a great gameday atmosphere, but we can hold our own. Woulda been fun. Guess we'll have to settle for a rematch in the MNC as an undefeated VT takes on a one-loss Alabama, eh?! :biggrin: :biggrin:
