IDEA: bring red balloons to the IU game UPDATE: Never mind!

Submitted by caup on

When M wins we all blow up our red balloon and pop it.  See what I did there? 

Fun, clever,and easy to sneak in.  A great way to say...

F-U, Crean.

UPDATE: Never mind, the Huskers just popped IU's bubble tonight.

This is exactly how I have eaten M&M's since I was a kid. Made them last longer and was actually pretty entertaining. Kids would ask me what I was doing, and I would always just say "Eating my M&M's." I always thought I was the only one.

A thousand balloons popping at the same time in a full arena.  I can't help but think of SWAT teams, helicopters, Navy Seals, Rangers, Boy Scouts and the National Guard converging on Crisler until they all sigh in a moment of relief and collectively say "Oh, those darn kids!"  What could possibly go wrong?

If anyone will know what I'm talking about, but this reminds me of the red balloon skit from "Mr. Show". Probably the most underrated sketch comedy show of all time. But don't take my word for it... library.. blah blah blah..

Someone needs to make a sign with Stu, Zack, Zak, Mitch, Spike, and GR3(am I missing someone?) with the caption: No Tom, WE helped ruin your basketball program.

Matt Sheppard said that the celebration in the locker room after the Illinois game was fairly restrained. They were very happy, but we're not going wild. Beilein asked the Sophomores what their record against Indiana is. It is 0-3. They really want this game badly. I think a season ending victory over Indiana will be satisfying enough without any extra taunting.
