haha, too funny. Can't believe I missed this when I first read the thread. Me and my Dad use to call him "neck". His neck was attached to his torso via a slinky!

As a New York Rangers STH the "Potvin Sucks" chant heard at every game since 1979 is probably mine.

I love to hear Frank Sinatra singing NEW YORK NEW YORK in Yankee Stadium after a win.

I remember that from when I was a kid attending games at MSG. That and "beat your wife, Potvin, beat your wife" and "you, you, you, you F*** you!" from the cheap seats and "Boston sucks" even when they aren't playing. Man, that was a rough crowd when beer sales were unrestrained.

I'd also add these:

--NY Yankees fans wearing "Boston sucks" T shirts to every game no matter who is playing.

--When I lived in SF I saw "Forty F***ing Niners!" slogans everywhere.

--Beachball tosses at Dodgers Stadium

Murr beat me to my favorite, though.

I have to agree with Orioles1954, calling the Hogs with the whole stadium shaking!
