Reminiscent of Ranger fans' continuation of the "Potvin Sucks" cheer
by whistling the tune after the MSG organist stoped playing it.
 
Incidentally, Cornell fans had taken a couple of years ago to ending
Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll, Part 2" (after the commonly used "We're
gonna beat the hell outta you") with "F*** 'em up, F*** 'em up, go
C.U.!"; that was gotten around by at least nominally changing the
words to "Rough 'em up..."  Would that have been unacceptable in this
case because of the continued presence of "BC Sucks"?  Given the
Cornell cheer referring to BU, I have to say I appreciate cheers that
insult rivals even when they're not your opponent in the game at hand.
