no bunch of jerks reference for the carolina hurricanes?

 

Hadn't actually heard of this until looking it up after you said that.   Not sure if it'll keep on (much like the Bernie Lean one I'd once done for an A's fan, and that barely lasted a season), but if you're a fan looking to add it to your sig, I can make it for you.

I have a couple of suggestions for the "Where I come from signature" for Florida Gator football.. 

 

1). "Where I come from.... We don't back down"

 Reference to the Tom Petty song played over the PA System at The Swamp before the 4th quarter

 

2)  "Where I come from.... We keep our promises" 

Reference to Tim Tebow's famous promise

 

3). "Where I come from...we are the boys of Old Florida"

 

Reference to the tradition of the same name, where the fans lock arms and sway while singing the song of the same name at the end of the 3rd Quarter

 

4). "Where I come from....we stand up and holler!"

 

Reference to Mr. Two Bits

 

 

As for Gator basketball reference the Rowdy Reptiles (the student section at the O'Dome)

 

Also, create a Florida Panthers alternate referencing our rat throwing tradition ("Rats rain down"

 

Way back when, I'd originally had this in reference to the Gator Chomp (I'd always heard the song referred to as "Florida Jaws", but can't find any references to that as I search now.

But Florida fans told me that they preferred I go with the one used in the actual commercials.  (One also asked for these images instead, but that was a while ago)

I can fill a request, though, if you'd like.   I haven't gotten into the NCAA yet and it's been so crazy that I wound up behind on your sig and even posting the ones that I have done.   Speaking of which, here ya go:

USC signature suggestion:

 

”Where I come from...Warriors still fight in the coliseum.”

 

I've been using a double reference to the fight song and a common rallying cry.

But I'm on the outside looking in.   If you're a fan and know better, I can change it or add an alt.   It's what I did with the Gators.

All the old banners seemed to have been lost to the sands of time, I was wanting to get my old banner in a smaller form, but now I have no other option if I want to keep using it. Thankfully, the thread where the original post is still there...

 

I decided, however, to swap in a whole new set of images, since it's been a little over 5 years since it got a refresh.

Heh.   Yeah, @Dalcowboyfan92, I'd moved on from Tinypic after a hack changed all the pictures to sparkly gifs.   I didn't realize as Tinypic was closing that there'd still be people rolling around with stuff that old on their sigs.   I have all the originals on my computer, but since you're looking to update the pics anyway, here's an updated version!
