‘Norm’ chant planned for Wisconsin game

[ 7 ] October 20, 2010 |

From the Iowa Sports info department:

Keep forwarding so we can get everyone involved!!

Subject:

A movement has started to try to get everyone in the stadium this Saturday to scream and chant “Norm” on every Wisconsin third down. Bring signs and do whatever is necessary to get the entire stadium rocking.

The idea is to do this in honor of Norm Parker who, as you probably know, has been hospitalized more then once and is in a serious battle with his diabetes. My understanding is he already lost his foot. If you watched the post game last week it looked like Ferentz had tears in his eyes after the game when Parker was mentioned. These two are huge friends. Norm has not been coaching.

Can you imagine how pumped up the defense will get if the entire stadium is rocking with a Norm chant. A ton of signs would also be great. Those of us watching on TV want to see the signs, hear the crowd and listen to the announcers explain what is going on.

Go to work guys and lets make this happen. Lets watch the power of viral marketing. Tell others to keep passing this message on. I posted this on facebook linking to an event request and suggest you do the same.

NORM, NORM, NORMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I like the idea of chanting “Norm”, but the brownshirts working the gates and the Per Mar geriatrics working the aisles are definitely going to seize any signs they see.
