The Reds announcers tonight made note of the wave that was going on at Miller Park... said the wave go turn really slow for a round, then come back and go really fast. "That's kinda neat!" They said.
Little do they know... this was started at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison at football games. The student section would start the wave. On the way around, the student section would chant "sloooow sloooow slooooow" all while motioning with the palms down gesture. The next wave would go really really slow around the stadium. Then we'd go fast and it'd race around the stadium.
Not done yet... next trick was "reverse reverse reverse." The wave would go around backwards. Near the end of my time at Madison, we added the "split" wave, where the wave would split in half and half would go one way and half the other.
Not bad for a bunch of drunk undergrads...

Madison took the wave to new levels. At any other stadium, the fans are thrilled if the wave even makes it one full time around.
