hey man can't you show a little respect for our hawaiian culture. you guys are a great team and have great fans. this isn't bs...this a cultural practice of how to prepare oneself for battle.

hey can't you show a little respect for our culture? when rain comes down, a beautiful rainbow appears in the islands. it is a good sign. long ago, if a rainbow appeared over a child, it meant they were destined for greatness; they would be destined for royalty. i dont mean to get uptight but please watch what you say alrite? great game by the Gators though!

The south*. The south has oppressive eat, high humidity, and heavy thunderstorms. In Hawaii they call it Mauka showers. Or mountain showers.

Every team has their own tradition. Example: Notre Dame players hit that sign, Maryland touches the turtle, Louisiana Tech touches the Bulldog, Hawaii has the Ha,a war chant. It is done for respect for the team, the fans, and the gods. It is the team asking for the gods help in the game. And yeah, it rains all the time in Hawaii. And 95% of the time, Hawaii dominates. Hawaii's rain is much more different than the soyt

Common this game was Great being that they had a heisman QB , & a killer D we had a whole different offense and the fact that we hanged with them a whole quarter is amazing but then 2nd&3rd quarter Florida Dominated hey man Florida deserves to be where there at but with a rebuilding year this was the wrong time to play the Gators Herman Fraizer is stupid for making this game he sould've try'd to get them last year when we needed a team like them. Instead we get them this year Smart scheduling.
