Choreography aside, we don't need to steal any more chants/dances. We are a creative bunch and can figure out stuff on our own. Not saying that we steal this, but suggesting that we make up our own.

I think it would be funny/kinda cool if when free throws are being shot from the other side of the arena, we had a steady whispery chorus of people just saying "youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" almost like a light beehive noise for like 10-15 seconds or however long it takes to get ready to shoot, and then about a second before he shoots, one person lifts their hand in the air and everyone yells "SUCK!!!"
It might mess him up and I think it might sound cool/ is talking trash. I don't know, might be worth a shot.
You could say doooooooooooooooooooont MISS! or something. Might be better than left or right everytime.

There is just too much, the wooooo and the foul count. Makes it difficult to throw a charge chant in before the next possession and didn't work so well last time...

Oh yah forgot about that (know what your talking about). I think that works fine but the hail charge god and thou shalt not pass wasn't working well.

I thought YOU SHALL NOT PASS was a good effort for the first game that we tried it.

I was in the third row and just heard it all of a sudden from a few people up front Yeah we shouldn't be doing the turnover woo after a charge cause it's a foul anyway not a turnover so I think counting and doing a signal and then You Shall Not Pass would be good

Everyone knows, "Oh when the Saints go marching in"
Start out slowly, " s d s uuuuu" Is won der fullllll s d s u is wonderful You Know you wish you were an Aztec SDSU is wonderful!
Then really chant it out,
SDSU! IS WONDERFUL! SDSU IS WONDERFULL!! YOU KNOW YOU WISH YOU WERE AN AZTEC! SDSU IS WONDERFUL!
I've done this before in England for the St. Helens Rugby SuperLeague team. If you sing it out correctly at the start and really Chant it out in unison for the second verse, its pretty epic.
Then Really Chant it out

Uprising is the only thing we can do effectively as acapella. This will give us something to change it up.

Then Really Chant it out I don't know about this chant in particular, but I like the direction you're going in. I watched a bunch of videos of Liverpool fans singing "You'll Never Walk Alone" over the weekend and got super inspired to try and think of more stuff like that we can do (although I think showhymn and uprising are pretty on par). I've always thought we should aspire to be the college basketball equivalent of soccer hooligans. Now if only we could bring flares into Viejas.

Or maybe get the lyrics on the game flyer?

"You'll Never Walk Alone" by the LFC fans is absolutely amazing. The best one is from CL final in Istanbul 2005, the team is losing 3-0 and the fans start singing that song team comes back and wins on penalties! Easy to draw comparisons with The Show and LFC fans, losing at half time and still we chant "I believe" the team comes from behind and wins. Both fan bases are known for their passion and innovative songs and chants. Plus they are both RED and BLACK!

Here is a slower one, its to the tune of the "Ballad of the Green Beret"
RED and BLACK upon their chest These are men, SDSU's best Two teams will test today But only one, play the AZTEC WAY!
and then maybe breaking into the S-D (clap clap) S-U, S-D (clap clap) S-U
Its short and would be easy for everyone to follow. Maybe too soft? What you guys think?

Maybe too soft? What you guys think? I dig it. Maybe "the Mesa's best" instead of "SDSU's best" just to make the syllables fit better? It would probably need to be published in the fliers so people could catch on easier. For those that don't know the tune (like I didn't 5 minutes ago): www.youtube.com/watch?v=0y5GDvN9_OE

Much can be learned from soccer teams.
Liverpool has "You'll Never Walk Alone", which is my favorite (yes ohswick, I admit it). West Ham United has "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles". Weird song, but they like it. Portland Timbers sings "You Are My Sunshine". I like that. Scotland sings "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)". Sheep, Haggis, and the Proclaimers, I guess.
If we were to coin one, might I suggest Boys on the Docks by Dropkick Murphys? That's begging to be turned into an arena chorus. It's not an in-game song, but a timeout, pregame, or halftime song more akin to Uprising or I Believe.
Do watch

Anything by them or Flogging Molly would be awesome. But Unstoppable by Foxy Shazam was literally written to be an arena anthem: "We are unstoppable, No we can't be defeateeeeeed! We are unstoppable, No we don't need a reasooooooon! ....and we woooooon't back down this time, No we wooooooon't back doooooown this time! We are unstoppable, No we can't be defeateeeeeed! We are unstoppable, No we don't need a reasooooooon!" Not the order of the song necessarily, but that's the way I envision it being chanted if it ever happened.
