Rocky Top - But Make It Terrifying (the Halloween idea thread)

[VolFaninFla]

There’s a lot of overactive imagination going on right now.

Well, it was almost 1:00 AM and he was probably drinking heavily.
Possibly some mind altering drugs had been used also.

Not bad honestly. Put some cool scary graphics to the video and you got a hit!

a normal vols game but every time rocky top plays someones head explodes?

Opponents heads, ok?

Musically I like it but it needs a creepier vocal. The "Howwwwdy" Minnie Pearl voice just doesn't go with it. It needs a creepier, more ghostly voice.

I’ve tried to like it for a couple of days. The opening lyrics have a haunting quality, but it gets a little tortured by about :30 in. To each their own.

How can I get this converted into a ringtone??

Interesting comment from Neyland Pyro tech. Pyro Jesus might be the coolest nickname ever.

If we don’t play the Halloween theme in the tunnel and then go straight into Rocky Top running through the T then we will have missed a hell of an opportunity. #tweetdannywhite

I personally like it either during the pre-game light show or as the teams are huddling to take the field for the opening KO. UK calling out their coverage and running out to line up with this going on would set a hell of a tone early.

I think it would be totally awesome if, during the Pride's pre-game show, the lights of the entire stadium were suddenly dimmed and a witch's cackle sounded over the loudspeakers, only for the lights to come back, all orange, and the band to break into "Who ya gonna call, Ghostbusters!" ... then transition from that into Michael Jackson's "Thriller", and then begin the transition into the T for the lads to run out...in Dark Mode uniform.

Ghostbusters! Go Vols!

My thoughts as well. The digital notes sound like something out of Mario Paint on SNES from back in the day.

I don't think anyone is afraid of McCollough or Hadden. One can't cover and the other can't tackle. If we could only combine the two to make a single adequate secondary defender...

I know of person that is...

The OP video is weak, JMHO.

Believe that's just how the Osborne brothers lead singer's voice is sounding, pitch wise, after being slowed down.

Well there ya go. Sterl the pearl will probably fire it up. Make sure there's plenty of videos of it with those phones. Lol

Pregame light show??? Feel like we're going to get to hear the song!

You can hit record on your phones sound recorder and record it as a sound file.

Yeah, the dude he laid out! lol

Need an Amy Lee and James Hetfield collab for this.

Imagine Paul Bain running through the T wearing the all black uniform. Intergalactic scary. Kentucky would forfeit.

Stoops would retire…

Stoops would retire…

Coaches come out wearing ghost sheets. Cheerleaders paint their faces like the exorcist girl. Reverend Billy Ray Collins from John Boy & Billy calls the game in place of Kesling. Oooooooooo!! Suddenly Rocky Top has gotten real skeery.

Looks like Danny White listened.

Now THAT is how that song should be used.
