Glenwood Cheering Stimulus Plan.

HEY. I haven't posted in 3 days. I apologize for the laziness. Please still accept me and invite me to social events. PLEASE. I'm a little jittery right now, and no, it's not because of drugs; I'm just itching to tell you something. This post is perhaps the most important post I will ever write. ever. AND it strictly pertains to Glenwood High School.

We all know our student section is mediocre. Scratch that. It's loathsome. A local newspaper recently cited several excellent student sections, not including Glenwood. Now, I know we are not raiders fans:

You are never too old to embarrass your wife.

but we are quickly being pinned as the weakest cheering section in the CS8 (with a capable football team). SO, in order for us to not leave a lingering legacy of a loathsome, lazy, and lamenting student section; we must strive for volume, vulgarity, and increase the viscosity of the valor in our veins! A few patriots have come up with some revolutionary ideas for us to pry open a can of whoop-ass.

You can't censor nature.

Here are some of the ideas myself, StuCo, and others have devised:


1. Have a flag bearer, for football, waving a majestic flag with the GT logo embossed upon every time we score. This could also work for basketball.


2. Move the student section for basketball back to the other side of the gym, except this time put us behind our own team. This way we can keep Rourke happy and be in the better side of the gym.


3. Have shirts for different types of nights. Black shirts for "lights out" and white shirts for "white out". These would have the Glenwood fight song on the back, SINCE NOBODY KNOWS IT. To my shame I also do not know it, BUT this would make it hella-easy.


4. PARTY BUS. This is my favorite idea. Remember when we used to have a fan bus when our teams went to state? This is the cooler version. When we go to away games, a bus full of raucous students would show up, blasting 80's dance music, and sirens blazing. So, instead of our fans showing up one by one, the away gym would instantly be filled with a bunch of rowdy Glenwood students. Don't think we're not rowdy. WE IGNITE FLAMETHROWERS IN THE BATHROOM DOG. Real talk.


5. Have better cheers. Pretty simple really. A few people in the front of the cheering section will yell out what they want to do, and all the rest of us will have to do is follow suit. 


People of Glenwood, we can do this. All we really need to do is step out of that comfort zone, and say a cheer for once. We only go through the high school experience once, so why not try and make it worth remembering?


Shout out to Mark Riseman. A good looking guy.
