    Random Cheer

    I would also do his cheer that made no sense (as most cheer don't) at my football games in Dallas. Got me a lot of looks in the stands. So, one last cheer for you George (his explanation of the lines in parenthesis) :

    Rat Shit, Bat Shit, Dirty Ol' Twat (perfectly good way to start a cheer, as far as I'm concerned)

    69 Assholes Tied in a Knot (I don't know what that means, either)

    Hooray!

    Lizard Shit!

    Fuck!
