The fans at my school love the "it's all over" cheer, which I absolutely despise. Its use brought up a conversation about the validity of calling the game prematurely (the fans chanted at 3 min, 2 min, and 1 min, approximately). I'd like to know, what is the largest deficit/least time win you've seen pulled off?

I saw an 8 point lead evaporate in 1 min. 46 sec. at a girls soph game last year. And fouling was not the cause. lousy ball control was.

This was one in 1965. What is yours?
 

It's in the breeze, yeah.
It's in my knees, yeah.
It's on my hips, yeah.
It's on my lips, yeah.
It's in the air, yeah.
It's everywhere, yeah.
It's all over, yeah.
It's all over, yeah.
It's all over.

Our school chants:

Na na na na
Na na na na
Hey Hey Hey
Goodbye!

I love it!

Problem with my school
 

We have a rather large foreign student population, and they just don't do justice to the good ol' U-S-of-A chants. Would you be willing to come in and teach them some?

Unbelievable
 

Boys hs game 30-40 seconds left, down 11, 3 threes off two turnovers and a T on the coach. Way cool being a prt of that kind of game.

I guess the classic on this is the Duke, Maryland game where Duke was down by 10 with a minute to go. I have not witnessed a better comeback than that one.

As far as the chants go. When I am in the stands, I am singing with the kids. I think we all know when the game is over. I just wish some of the players would realize it and quit fouling down by 10 with 10 seconds to go.

This is my pet peeve too. I heard a new "chant" this year at the girls Tourney. The band played "Another One Bites the Dust"....

During the 1965-66 season (I am not kidding), I saw a team blow a 7 point lead with only 13 seconds left in the game. It was a boys' H.S. freshmen game. After blowing that lead on our own home court we finally won the game in four overtime periods. I was a member of the winning team and I will never forget the practice that we had the next day.

I seem to remember a college game a few years back with two small schools during their conference tourney. One team came back from 18 inside of a minute forty.

It was raining three's.

The popular near-end-of-game cheer at our high school is:
"WHO'S YOUR DADDY?" Sounded kind of rude the first time I heard it but I had to laugh when a visiting team's student section thru it back in our kids' face during the second meeting of the two teams. Obviously a different outcome the second game.
