Hawaii Warriors Football New Haka - Hawaiian Ha'a War Chant

From The Honolulu Advertiser:

The University of Hawai'i football team debuted its new version of the haka before and after Saturday's 49-14 win over Nevada-Las Vegas.

Not to confuse people, this is actually the Hawaiian Ha'a and not the Maori Haka. If you listen closely, it's spoken in fluent Hawaiian and associates Hawaiian movements.

@aac202173 This isn't a Haka, it's a Ha'a. The lyrics and the movements are entirely hawai'ian. This is all them, sure it's inspired by the Haka, but they created this specifically for the University of Hawai'i.

As much as I respect AF, I still think any pacific/maori war dance should be performed without

the padding.

maybe if they spent more time practicing football instead of the haka (or ha'a), they would actually be pretty decent.

@randomdude1426 It's an islander thing, not rugby's.
