why do the arizona WILDCATS have "bear down" on their field?

**ridik01** · 11-10-13, 12:17 AM

Because back in the day they had a dude get in a really bad car accident or whatever. He told to coach before the game to tell the guys to bear down and he died shortly after.

My wife went to Arizona, that's what she told me.

Still stupid to write it on the field. Thanks though for the insight.

Yup, I said that every game too! They take it very seriously there though, had a dude get pissed at me for saying that same statement you said lol.

They take the cake in worst fans in existence also.

I hope this doesn't become a trend...oh lord I can see it now "Roll Tide" "Geaux Tigers" "The Swamp"...awful just awful

Made up bullshit story from a shitbox program. Asswipe's want their own "Gipper" fable. Even went as far as to predate their bullshit story before the Gip gave his "when the breaks are beating the boys" horseshit.

Can't argue there! I don't get why the dude said 'Bear Down" and they've always been the Wildcats....

Perfect example of a guy talking about shit he has no clue about, even though he has access to the information.

You can be anything on the internet, why do you choose to be stupid?

Beardown has been the school motto for close to 90 years now.

1926 came before 1928, right?

Seriously, this is the internet.

That is the true story, dude got into a bad accident in 1926.

The gipper thing happened in 28.

Wiki this shit.

**ChalkyDog** · 11-10-13, 01:35 AM

Maybe I'll join the idiocy and claim the Gipper thing was a spin on the real thing that happened in Arizona.

Nah, no need to be that fukkin retarded.

Take it away, Walters and Gold.

Okay nvm, disregard those last posts. I thought you were talking to me.

**ChalkyDog** · 11-10-13, 01:38 AM

Why does Alabama say Roll Tide when their mascot is an Elephant. The people in this thread just can't wrap their head around it.

Fukk witts.

**J_smiff** · 11-10-13, 01:43 AM

Nah, you used the information at your fingertips.

And in reality, I think it's fukkin stupid. If you have to go on about a car accident from 1920 to explain your motto to everyone who asks because it is in no way obviously related, something failed along the way. But whatever, school tradition and what not. Gotta stand up for that crap. I just thank jesus our official thing isn't a shocker or some hobo-tree or a bear with down-syndrome.

They've gotten worse every time since 1998. They're full on FUBU right now. If I got a free one of these Arizona jerseys, I'd sell it. Garbage. It's embarrassing too. On the same level of terrible as Maryland's.
