Around here they just yell "3 seconds." No confusing it that way.

I just put over the back and keyhole because neither of those are actual calls or names of calls and it is always kind of humerous to hear the fans shout them out. Though I have a funny feeling I wouldnt listen to them any more if they actually yelled out "verticality".

Obviously we get fans saying "3 seconds!" as well. But the real old school Idaho fans will yell "keyhole!" Picture a real old guy in the stands in flannel and youve got it about right. Particularly the further away from the towns and into the smaller areas like Wallace and Kellog. In Coeur d'Alene you get the more refined "3 seconds."

I do agree with holding the dog when at work, but I think seeing the video series is good to remind ourselves "what not to do".
