The most popular and well liked tradition at Pitt (as far as I know) is singing sweet caroline at the football games. Kids love it because at the end of the third quarter, the whole stadium sings in unison, and then screams "sweet caroline...lets go pitt" together instead of the typical "sweet caroline... bum bum bum". I'm probably the only person at Pitt I know who doesn't like it. I don't like it because it's not a very "football-ish" song, and it brings about a cheerful attitude often at inappropriate times. For example, if it's a tight game and we just let up 2 touchdowns to allow the other team back in the game, I don't think that cheerful attitude is appropriate. Also, even when we're winning, I'd prefer a more intense/pump up song. My personal favorite traditions are at the basketball games. I'd say my favorite is when the other team's starting lineup is being announced, the oakland zoo (student section) holds up newspapers (as if they other team isn't worth our attention) and then screams "sucks!" after every player is announced (ex. Austin Rivers... SUCKS...Seth Curry...SUCKS). We also do other things like jump up and down and scream while the opponent is on offense, and distract them when they're shooting free throws.

Inside the building there are many rooms known as nationality rooms, each of these rooms representing a different culture. Not only are they shown off to the public, but they are taught in as well. It is a grand place to visit, which our President Barack Obama and his wife got the pleasure of doing so during the G-20 summit here in Oakland in September 2009.
