ANTICS

Tortilla
K's
We figure since the letter "K" is the symbol for a strikeout, and the tortilla is a symbol tied to Tech sports, what better way to celebrate the strikeouts of an opposing team than a "Tortilla K?" One is hung on the railing after each whiff or "looking" strike three with the scream of "Tortilla!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"C'mon Dang It!"
OK, we'll admit, this has been done before, but it was too stinking hilarious not to repeat. It all started when we watched UT fanatic Wilson spit out a slurred version of this tradition at the Big 12 Tournament. When the time is right and we need some rally action, Mike will make his way to the bottom of a row, bend over like he's not feeling too well, and scream out, "C'mon, dang it!" before beginning a wonderful rendition of rhythmic clapping.

Bubba Dance
Nothing tops off the seventh-inning stretch like a little Bubba dancing to the Cotton-eyed Joe. Nobody breaks it down quite like Bubba, but with two of us combined, we do our best.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gringo
A long-standing tradition of the Hecklers North before us we continue to Gringo when the opposing team changes pitchers for the first time in the middle of an inning.

Scooter Dance
When a guy named "Scooter" is playing for Tech, you can't let that go without some serious recognition. Therefore, we invented the "Scooter Dance." It's pretty easy: just get on your imaginary scooter and ride, ride, ride.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thriller
We were a little worried at the beginning of the year when Colorado-native and JC transfer Doug Beck went to the plate. After all, who isn't a little uncomfortable these days when referencing the plastic-coated, one-glove-wearing King of pop? But after a while, we realized this song and this player were money, and now the "Thriller dance" is the new craze all over Dan Law Field.
