Huskerpapa Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 At some point this coming season, at least on Senior day, the following has to be arranged to honor him. Heck, bucks are paid out to get the Frisbee chasing dogs here, we can figure out a way to make this happen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdhrUKRdKM8 Red Don 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Peterson Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 I'll do it. Heck, I paint myself up like that to go to every game anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cazzie22 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Got to have the team perform the Haka on Senior Day. I tried to learn the dance in Rotorua, New Zealand in May. I could only make the scary face, which for me is not difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Peterson Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 The key to the Haka is having a large number of deep voices chanting loudly in unison. Unison. Has to be in unison. So, has to be well-drilled. Practiced. There's a leader who yells out stuff and then everyone else chants loudly in unison and sticks their tongues out, etc. In New Zealand, there may be some significance to the hand movements, etc. But to do one here, I think it'd be more about the noise. You could even be yelling "Sharkbait ooh haha" and if you're doing it loud and in unison, it'll work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norm Peterson Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Here's a video where they even culturally appropriated the Haka at a wedding. (Love the bride's facial expressions ... like WTF?) See, we could so do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still pretty impressively, I guess. Had been 38 years since I saw that live. Brought back some memories, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
