What about the chanting at the Bowl Games?



What is your definition of chant? Many people think automatically of Buddhist chant, Gregorian chant, or Native American chant. But guess what, the "cheers" that fans chant at sports events are also a type of chant. They fit the definition: "chant is a positive statement repeated over ad over in a rhythmic fashion for the purpose of raising energy for a group or an individual." Can you imagine going to a sporting event that didn't have cheerleaders and fans jumping up and screaming and yelling to encourage the players to play their best and win one for their team? Can you imagine how boring it would be without a pep band? Think about it! It's yet another form of vibrational healing.
