UTEP vs NMSU

Just thinking, since El Paso overreacts to any kind of inclement weather, if there’s even a hint of snow for Saturday, would the game get postponed? 😳❄️

I wouldn't say El Paso overreacts. It's not often we get this type of weather, so it's better to err on the side of caution.

Snow will be gone by tomorrow. It's going to be a high of 54 degrees on Saturday.
 
Okay since it sold out. What scalp prices going for?? Wheres our scalp ticket sellers ??

Good one Maniac. IMO, since it has been so long since UTEP has done the chant, I'm guessing very few fans are left that remember what it is. I really think the band would need to initiate it. Apparently, in 2014, they reinstated it for home games:


It's been many years, but I think they did away with the Amen chant around the same time they let Strelzin go. I remember opposing schools/coaches complaining about Strelzin's tactics of getting the crowd involved. It's possible that the origin of the chant may have had something to do with it getting axed. It would be great for the younger fans to get a taste of what UTEP basketball was like back in the day. Hopefully, that starts this Saturday.
I remember last hearing it in 90-91.

"They" didn't do away with it. People just stopped doing it. Much like people say "bring back the Miner Maniacs"... they weren't done away with, they just got older and stopped going to the games
