Quit trying to make "roll Herd" happen, its never going to happen

One thing I cant believe we havent done yet is the LED light show after touchdowns and at half time/pregame. Its baffling that Georgia and Alabama have already pulled it off in their outdoor stadiums, but we're still using manual spotlights with incandescent bulbs straight from the film set of 'Grease'. Theres no reason it shouldnt become a complete rave during the tunnel walk and after each touchdown. No other program has a stadium that is better suited for this than NDSU

‘Member the fiber optic led astroturf gag about Oregon april fools day a few years back?

Wonder where the technology surrounding that is now.

No one would be laughing then…

Roll herd seems to be an obvious ripoff from Alabama as I don't know of any other schools that say roll <team name>. One of the funniest signs/displays at the College Gamedays in Fargo was someone with a roll of toilet paper and a Tide laundry detergent bottle for roll tide.

Roll herd sounds dumb.

Roll herd sounds dumb.

How about Roll NDSU Bison aka the Thundering Herd aka "The Herd".

[TransAmBison]

We don't say Roll Herd...and we are not FBS. Coincidence?

[HerdBot]

How about Roll NDSU Bison aka the Thundering Herd aka "The Herd".

Thundering Herd and The Herd sound good on radio or TV promos, but not a good expression by the fans.

Example,
Bob says to his friend Vinny

Bob: Hey bro, wanna go see the Thundering Herd game?"
Vinny: No bro, but I'll go see the Bison.
Bob: That's great! Roll Herd!
Vinny: Fuck you Bob. Go Bison.
Bob: I hope we win. Roll Thundering herd
Vinny: Fuck you Bob. Let's Go Bison.

Another example

Bob: Hey bro, wanna go tailgating and then go watch the Herd?"
Vinny: I though Colin Cowerd was only on Mon-Fri?"
Bob: No Bro the Thundering Herd
Vinny: Oh you mean the Bison.
Bob: Yes sir. Roll NDSU Bison.
Vinny: Fuck you Bob. Let's go Bison!

Radio Broadcast:
"The Thundering Herd have taken the field"
"The Herd have taken over Frisco"
"The Herd are back in town!"

Personally I have always thought Roll Tide was a stupid sounding saying.

What in the actual fuck was this?????
