Up with Montana

My buddy from Nebraska's comments after reading the words to "Up with Montana," the University of Montana fight song:


Nice. I especially like the line:

And the squeal of the pig
will float on the air;

From the tummy of
the Grizzly Bear!

It is a very rabid song until the word "tummy" is sung. You should suggest alternatives for "tummy."


For example, gut, bowels, stomach, belly, thorax, paunch, or the ever popular, solar-plexus.

"From the solar plexus of the Grizzly Bear! Roar!"

Clark, I will just say this, not many school fight songs have been read into the congressional record. Up with Montana has, and by the senator from another state. Granted, he was as puzzled by the lyrics as I was the first time I heard it, but being a recent UM grad, I learned to love the quirky fight song. Up with Montana, boys! Down with the foe!

I say we should also change the simple "roar" to something scarier like: RAWWRRRRRR!!!

Because that's what bears do.

That's what happens when you bet against the Griz. Not so sure their prospects are as good this year though.

Carroll Saints = the new Griz.

Bobcat fan can't identify himself while taking digs at the Griz? Gotta do that anonymously? Typical. Tell ya what: you go on back to Bozeman and work on winning a playoff game. It's only been 21 years.
