With so much hype surrounding the environment in Wisconsin's Camp Randall Stadium for Saturday night's game, I decided to do a little research to see just how wild the studious Badgers are.

Thanks to you power of YouTube, I came away with five discoveries. (Note: I can't actually put any of these videos in the blog because, well, they're a little too vulgar and I don't want my little nephew hearing such awful language. So basically, click the links a warning of explicit content).

My Conclusions:

1. Wisconsin students love classic top 40 songs.
Like the one made famous by the movie Animal House, Shout! (warning explicit), or the Foundations' Build Me Up Buttercup (warning explicit). But that's all well and good, teams across the country play old pop rock songs, but those Wisconsinites wouldn't dare "steal" Penn State's own Hey Baby, or would they (warning explicit)? You judge which is better?

2. The Badger students are well organized.
So much, in fact, they can change the speed of their waves (warning explicit).

3. Fans at Camp Randall have strong calves.

Especially considering how much they love to jump (warning explicit). Sometimes even the players jump -- nothing but pun intended -- in (warning explicit). And it engulfs the entire stadium.

But the real question is, does it beat this?

4. People from Wisconsin apparently like to use four-letter words, a lot.

I mean I've spent nights at the Skeller, Gaff and believe it or not, the Collegian offices, and even I'm a little taken aback by this, a little.

(Warning, the following videos are extremely vulgar)

First, they took the Steve Miller Band classic Swingtown and turned it into S#!&town (warning explicit) (well, not technically, S#!&towne (warning explicit) is a song by the band Live, from my hometown, York, Pa. what? Funny story about that, the father of Live's lead singer, Ed Kowalczyk, taught seventh grade at my middle school. Also, one of my friends is the drummer's cousin)

Next, the Badger faithful took one of the most common stadium cheers and turned it rated R (warning explicit). (I know many stadiums include the "you suck" part after "Hey," but do they need the rest?) Guess the Wisconsin students couldn't come up with something more creative, like, maybe, this.

Finally, the students took the traditional call and response cheer, kind of like "We Are ... something something" and just made it downright filthy, I mean come on, they're your fellow Wisconsin students (warning, extremely, utterly, unquestionably explicit. Like to the point where if you don't want to feel like you'll have to go to confession immediately, do not click this link).

5. My final conclusion, and it's fairly obvious, there must be a heckuva lot of alcoholics at the University of Wisconsin.

First, the band plays songs from beer commercials, and just changes "Bud" to "Wisconsin." And they add polkas. The last time I saw sober people dancing the polka was at a wedding on my mother's side of the family.

Sticking with the polka theme, the band also plays a good ole' song I last heard being played by the Phyrst Family, the beer barrel polka. But I gotta admit, the band does look like it's having a blast while "rolling out the barrels."

The students, on the other hand, coordinate their walk down the stadium steps and presumably to the bar.

Finally, the entire student section loudly and, presumably proudly, voices its post game plans (warning explicit). (Could this have been right after Ohio State's Terrelle Pryor crossed the goal line late in the fourth quarter?)

So there you have it. Hopefully it's given you a little insight into what the Lions will be getting themselves into this Saturday. If Joe Paterno wants the squad to get a feel for the environment, maybe he should just have them practice outside Canyon at 2:15 some morning.
