Can you imagine how intimidating that place/entrance would be if Virginia Tech was an elite/yearly championship contender like Bama, Clemson, or Ohio State?
As a VT alum, I can tell you that every game is this hype for the fans, especially the students. Sure, playing Clemson and Ohio State in 2015 made everyone more excited and even more hyped to try and intimidate the brother team and fans but even against FBS teams, the students go nuts when the song starts
Ishmael Thomspon Songs in sports are a weird gray area. The stadium has rights to songs and in NFL, those songs leak onto the broadcast, but it's not like the sole focus is the entrance or anything. What would make this case any different?
That is Captain Vince Houston. He is the best example of faithful public service and one of Virginia Tech's finest. As captain it is his job to assign the security detail, ...he assigns himself every time. It is hard work, but it has its benefits. LOL
You have to experience this live. Up close and personal to feel the energy and electricity. To feel the stadium literally shake on it's foundation. Being there is incredible.
LackAttack24 it's a shame that the current scheduling only allows cross divisional matchups every 5-6 years. Clemson and Va Tech should be an annual game
Thers a band that can sing this song very well there one of my faves papa somebody he's a very very great singer in my view great voice just like this he doesn't sing fully but he sung it to the band that was sitting there that plays that song metalica he sung their song in front of them I bet I just bet he could outsing outplay he's that good and his band almost doesn't need one just a few people and he does it like no one can
Henry Llajaruna that’s because the NFL is full of pussy wanna be tough players. College is so much better, more people watch it and more people get hype about it.
@@TimC19 Depends what team really. Skol chant always has me ready to run through a wall LOL. And the chop the Chiefs do is awesome. But then again a bunch of teams do that.
As a Clemson fan, this was honestly cool af to watch, gave me chills and hyped me up for the game. And that was on TV. Would love to attend a game at VT and experience in it person.
This game was my senior year at Tech, I remember yelling and not being able to hear even my own voice. Whole body was vibrating and we broke the north endzone bleachers. One of the top 5 loudest games in the country and Goodwin hall about 3 miles from the stadium picked it up on their seismograph. We saw the first 3 modes of vibration from the building in a lab later in the year (it has about 40k sensors in it for vibratory analysis).
I wish people could actually hear how loud the croud is more people cover there ears during the chants and the jumping than when the skipper cannon goes off tbh.
Hokiedude i was up there when we played ohio state and i was next to osu fans and they git ti about every oau home gane and they said it was way louder than osu
Zach P not true the shoe can get just as loud for a night game. Most day games are average. Don’t believe me? Vince young and Matt Barkley say it was the toughest environment they ever faced, Coach Mack a brown said he could not hear himself think. But that’s college football in general lmao
Zach P I too was at the game as a Buckeye fan. A couple games I’ve been too got Ohio Stadium to get as loud as VT that game (2015/2017 vs Penn State, 2016 vs Michigan). There is quite a lot of wasted potential in our experience. We just need the crowd to constantly crank out noise
Today is my son’s 26th birthday. I used to play this song for him when I carried him. His signature song. Guess who’s getting his Phd at Virginia Tech now?? MY SON! Happy birthday, son. I love you with all my soul.
As a Virginia Tech Alumni, I went to every single home game during my four years at VT. My freshman year at VT was the year we went to the National Championship game against FSU with Michael Vick as our quarterback. I have also been to pro-football games. I can absolutely assure you, without a doubt, NOTHING beats the energy of a huge college football game, and Virginia Tech ALWAYS brings that energy. The Enter Sandman entrance, experienced live at Lane Stadium, is unlike any other experience you can imagine. It is a beast of adrenaline and tradition. As a freshman in college, I was spoiled. I was spoiled by Michael Vick's Houdini-like ability to avoid tackles. I was spoiled by win-after-win, often by overwhelming scores. I was spoiled by seeing the ESPN College Football tv crew appearing at nearly all of our games, as if this were just normal. And I was spoiled by our one-of-a-kind Enter Sandman entrance. I was too young and it was too overwhelming for me to really comprehend how unique that experience was. I can look back on it now and recognize how amazing it was and how fortunate I was to have that experience multiple times over four years. Thank you VT!
Penn State fan here....this is BY FAR thee best and most amazing entrance in all sports and IMO nothing comes close. I get goosebumps every time I see this. If I were a recruit and was at one of these big games seeing this, my decision would be made instantly. Hokie Nation yall are second to none.
Honestly the video doesnt do it justice on how loud Lane Stadium gets, but Death Valley is a stadium no one wants to go too. Only 3 schools that i know of have had richter marking from the game VTx4, Auburn and LSU. Good shit LSU.
I’m a longhorns fan and I’ll tell you one thing nothing will beat this entrance ever. Former Tech players to this day still get goosebumps watching it on TV. I seen Tyrod Taylor with his dad at a bar watching it and man he got up and was just pacing back and forth just excited as hell.
That's better than nothing. Yea NH is a tough state for college FB. Most of the rabid CFB fans with lit stadiums are in the south. Even the BIG 10 teams that are "close" to you are pretty far away. Syracuse has a good coach and plays in a dome so if they can catch some momentum the might be worth going to see in a few years. Until then stick to the Pats. I've never been to a pro game since, Charleston SC is pretty far from any pro team, but I've heard they don't have the same electric feel as CFB games. Just add a big college game to your bucket list.
they get it!!! I am A buckeye who appreciates the pageantry of college football and its traditions, this is something professional football will never have. plus, Recruits love this stuff!
Frank Corcoran Ive givin up on my Buffalo Bills, had seasons tickets thru superbowl years, 17 years no playoffs, who wants to pay $8.00 for 16oz beer. All though we still have loyal fans they still sellout almost every game. It is true Buffalo is snow capital of the USA we get 10-12 feet most winters from Lake Erie
drakeanton2000 They assume all the risk for our entertainment I have no problem with them seeking to get paid which is capitalism which is more American than your rage for them applying their 1st amendment right (although ineffective ) but I do empathize with you in the sense I miss the hard hits and catches we’re easily called catches with out interpretation needed
as a girl raised in the blacksburg area this is an AMAZING experience! it’s like experiencing a earth quake without being in one. what they don’t show here though is that during most games they bring out a cannon and shoot it off right before the song begins. i’m also proud to say that i’ve ran through that tunnel and touched the stone… just had to add that last bit in :))
I got to be there a couple weeks ago against Marshall. My stepdaughter started there this fall. Serious goosebumps, and it was emotional. Bucket list item.
Wow! If somebody from Europe wants to know why football is the #1 sport in America show them this video and I’m pretty sure they will get it.. simply amazing.. it’s gives you goose bumps
Ohio State fan here, I'll always root for Tech just because of this! What an amazing entrance! It was hard to root for my Buckeyes when we played the Hokies. Just AMAZING
Enter sandman is a hype entrance but I really wish Tech would stop playing the song in the middle of the freakin game, especially when we are down 3 scores in the 3rd quarter, people started leaving after tech pulled that sh** during the clemson game while we were getting spanked. It worked once during the miami game a few years ago but has not worked since. Hope they stop doing this.
very true, I was there for that one too but you can't disagree with me about playing it when we were down by a lot, it should be saved for special games that are CLOSE, as in not playing it when we are blowing them out or getting blown out
We ran out to this in the mid 90s, small school high school football and that gave me chills. I can't imagine how amped up these boys get running into that stadium hearing that music...
I'm a Clemson fan and I've always thought this is one of the coolest entrances for sure. Lane Stadium is crazyyyy at night. I was a freshman in 2011 when VT and FSU were the big dogs in the ACC. We wound up winning twice against VT, but I was pretty scared going into the first one in Blacksburg
Its the bus ride, its the anticipation of a powerhouse because they run down the hill and the opponents know they're about to get stomped. Whats cool about enter sandman? Wisconsin's jump around is better
I came to know about Virginia Tech back in…2005-2006 for the wrongest of reasons 😢 I was an MDC student back then. But what an institution that is. Talk about infrastructure! The campus, the students, their football team - how memorable would it feel to be part of that. I always thought.
VIRGINIA TECH HAS THE GOAT ENTRANCE IN ALL OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL! FACT'S LEGENDARY GOOSEBUMPS! I'M A TRUE HOKIES FAN FROM NEW JERSEY! GREATEST COLLEGE FOOTBALL TRADITION OF ALL TIME! NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT! LET'S GO! HOKIES! LOVE Y'ALL! VIRGINIA TECH FOREVER ❤
I just want a “football” team from somewhere in Europe to play at any big college football stadium, then they’ll hopefully understand why we are so passionate about football
Another clemson fan/alum here chiming in to say how cool this would be in person. Wish we played VT instead of GT so I could meet some actual fans at an away game instead of kids who got lost on their way to class and stumbled into Bobby Dodd.
While I was at the U I dated a cheerleader for a little while, and she always said that this was by far the most intimidating team intro of any school we played in her 4 years
Can you imagine how intimidating that place/entrance would be if Virginia Tech was an elite/yearly championship contender like Bama, Clemson, or Ohio State?
To be fair they were only excited because of their opponent. The environment is that strong otherwise.
Bama gets super hype and insanely loud
@@cl14704 bama doesn't get that loud nobody even shows up to their games

UPDATE: Now they actually let Enter Sandman keep playing for a while after the team runs out. Way more hype
I get chills down my spine
I love it I wanna jump with them
N lose my shiiiiii n I’m a Georgia Bulldogs fan
That’s good. Not trying to discredit the school band or anything but it kinda used to blue ball us lmao
Have they ever gotten Metallica to perform live?
Thank fucking god
"They all know the lyrics and sing along to Enter Sandman"
*Song cuts out before lyrics start*
They probably cut it because it was nationally televised and possibly couldn't or didn't want to buy it. Shame though.
I went to VT for 2 years for grad school. I went to 2 ACC title games and 2 bowl games, trust me, VT students do not know all the lyrics lol
Trust me we all know all the lyrics
😂😂😂

As a Tech fan I appreciate that!
Enter Sandman is one of the best hype songs ever, I get the chills every time I hear it
Thers a band that can sing this song very well there one of my faves papa somebody he's a very very great singer in my view great voice just like this he doesn't sing fully but he sung it to the band that was sitting there that plays that song metalica he sung their song in front of them I bet I just bet he could outsing outplay he's that good and his band almost doesn't need one just a few people and he does it like no one can
Try Master of Puppets man, the most iconic metallica song and the greatest
Em G have you heard of comas and full stops?
Δzāzīl Master of Puppets or For Whom the Bell Tolls would be even better for an entrance song
While serving in the military we used metallica's one while serving afganies bombs
Metallica gets the place jumpin
Lucas Russell
You damn skippy. Love 'Tallica. When they do Sandman live everybody goes crazy. Awesome!!!
Lucas Russell Metallica kicks ass man!
That place was very loud to I was there
Hell yeah it do I wish Georgia Bulldogs played songs like this
From the black album I would suggest as a backup would be Holier than Thou or Struggle Within for a Hype Song

my one regret in life is not choosing a college based on its football team lol I missed out on some awesome shit
It's never too late to pick a team and go to games. Pick a good one close to home.
