The Zolo on the corner kick ********ing sucks! Stop it, stop it now. What the ******** are you thinking? Let's take an intense moment and make it as boring as ********ing possible! I love the nickname Zolo, but on corners and freekicks lets go with something that isn't so lame. Seriously, it sucks.
Anything else would be better. We need a whole new repotoire of chants, but a new corner kick chant is the best place to start.
I'd be more apt to agree with you, if you didn't come on here spouting off right away. Lurk a little before coming in guns blazing.

Jesus friggin Christ. What the hell is the point of this post other than to bitch and moan? You aren't being constructive at all. All you do here is complain. If you're gonna complain about something at least suggest a goddamn alternative instead of just writing about how something sucks. If you have a problem with something we do and don't contribute to fixing then you're pretty damn useless.
Since everyone in the league has all the same chants anyway just go with the DC United corner kick chant. We did that for a few games and it was awesome. Then we went back to the zolo. Any chant that is more up tempo would be better. Chanting ZOOOOOOOOLLLOOOOOOOOOOO is like meditation. Calming, soothing, puts everyone to sleep.
Isn't there already a thread for this? https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1515555 For the record, I'm anti-Benedict Monk meets tomahawk chop chant, especially on a corner in the last few minutes of the match when the rest of the stadium is on their feet, going bananas & making noise. The whole thing seems forced and brings the intensity of the moment down a few notches... As much as it grates me, at least the half-a-DC United chant brings some energy. Or maybe take a queue from the other 16.5 and just go mental...
Thank you for posting something more constructive this time. I apologize if my original post came off kinda dickish. I'm just tired of people just making topics about the things they don't like and not have more substance to their posts than "this sucks don't do it." And I agree the Zolo chant is boring and I have on many occasions tried to get my corner of 138 to do the DC chant. The biggest barrier there is that my corner of 138 doesn't seem to want to do any chant that doesn't feature vulgar language.
I agree. I think a simple wall of noise would be better. I don't understand why it needs to be a chant at all.
my solution if we're going to do anything organized at all: the intro to "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC replace "Thun-der" with "Un-ion" and the grunting melody with oohs can start slow and then get faster until the whole section is jumping around going mad @30secs [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RukUetw0hAM"]AC/DC - Thunderstruck - YouTube[/ame]
This idea effing rules...as it makes its way around it will just get louder and louder. Get the drum players on this for that thundering bass part. Im already banging my head!!!!
Problem being that for corners, you usually have like 20 seconds before they kick it. Just ********ing yell. Why is this hard.
