New tag line for the blog?
Jazzy, I know this has come up before (I noticed you did change it a bit which is what made me think about it). However, I think its time for something new. Something that isn't a inside joke pointed at Max Hall and BYU. It's a new dawn for the U and "classless" joke or no joke doesn't really translate anymore... does it? Anyone else have any thoughts on the matter? Ideas?

I still honk whenever I see a
“Honk if you caught a pass from Max Hall” bumper sticker.

As I said the last time this was brought up...
Come up with a good tagline (or lines) and we’ll put it to a vote!
I still love the Classless line
You can’t forget your past.
or be defied by it

To me.....
the “classless” line hasn’t gone out of date yet. But I wonder how much our PAC-12 foes know about it. At any rate, I would be open to reading new potential taglines.

Could use a line from Utah Man
Like “Our gang it is the jolliest that you have ever seen.” Or something like Snuff and Fuss allowed but no Bluffing. But I will say I like the classless fans. I’ve seen some opposing fans saying they love Utah fans because they are logical and gracious, kinda makes the classless thing better.
I was thinking about the fight song too...
Fill your lungs and sing it out and shout it to the sky a Utah man am I.
No other gang of college men dare meet us in the muss.

I'm a fan of the classless line
it never gets old and gets a chuckle out of me at least half the time. great memories

I like "classless fans"
It’s amusingly self-deprecating with a pinch of “screw you” :)
this is just a side note
but are ANY of the BlockU regulars members of the Muss? I am an alumni (MUSS ’03!)

Snuck in as a guest last year and this year.

I wonder
if we ever bumped into each other back then in ’03. Me and a buddy would get there like 2 hours early to get 5th row. we had a blast!

Very possible
I think we were on row 8 or 9 that year. Good times.

I'm a regular reader but not really a regular poster.
Currently a member of the MUSS. It was disappointing to see it as empty as it was last game. Weather was actually really nice for a snow game.

2 year alum
04 & 05. But always was late to get tickets, so I was on row 37 or something.
Now I much prefer the S Endzone with the family.
Never a member
Been a student at the U for 7 years now (two degrees, not slackin’), but I have always preferred the less nuts atmosphere in the rest of the stands… so does the wife!

I get bored in other sections
If you aren’t in the MUSS you generally can’t stand for the whole game because it blocks someone’s view. The other thing about the MUSS is I can yell like crazy when Utah is on D and nobody looks at me like I’m a freak.
Eventually I’m going to run out of siblings and in-laws going to school, and there won’t be any more guest passes for me. Hopefully by then I’ll be able to purchase some real season tickets – tried this year and there weren’t any available. :(

Someone tried calling me out in the standing room only
I brought my roommate and we were cheering the whole time. Some guy, about five rows down, comes up and tries to chew us out for being too loud. Said we were giving his wife and daughter migraines.
If you want quiet, go to a golf match, not a football game.

Seriously. That just makes me angry.

This happened to me once at Willy Nelson Concert
I was pissed about it, but wife was restrained from slapping a bitch.
Go back to school?

I may have to if they don't free up some season tickets soon.

I've been in the Muss for the past 3 years
Finally got bottom bowl seats this year! I’m a regular reader, but I haven’t been posting much on here this season.
Yeah
But it could be seen as kind of gay to say that whole line. How about:
The MUSS, we own it

I enjoy the tagline...
Besides we don’t have any Pac 12 history or tradition other Pac 12 members would get. I am reminded of the quote on the MUSS shirts last year:Respect our history, fear our future. That’s might not be verbatim, but I was grabbing from memory.
