Don't take this away! We are the Hokies, it's only fitting that that's what it's all about...

I tell people about this tradition before they come to games. It's one of my favorite things. Please don't get rid of our favorite third quarter stretch.

The Hokie Pokie brings Joy & honors tradition & is unique to Virginia Tech! We love our spirit of Tech exemplified by our Tubas & Marching Virginians during the football games.

Please don't take away the Hokie Pokie. EVERYTHING doesn't have to be tough and menacing and competitive. Let's also teach our young ones to have FUN in competition!!! It's a GAME.

For my tuba brothers and sister seeking freedom to express themselves. For the same who want to be respected for more than shouldering the bottom of the chord. You do your dance my friends, do your dance.

This cannot be changed!! I can't believe it is even being considered! Yes it is very quirky but it is so unique and fun. It is part of what makes our home special for everyone.

What is wrong with you people? The Hokey Pokey is the most juvenile, embarrassing, cringe worthy part of our game day. Its a terrible tradition and can't leave soon enough! Does the University of Richmond sing the itsy bitsy spider? I am honestly stunned by the support of this. Unreal... seriously embarrassed that this many alumni support this "tradition"

Please don't remove our Hokie Pokie after the third quarter! That's an important tradition to all VT fans and we want it to stay.

This is a slap in the face to the traditions of Virginia tech. It's a moment for all Hokies and our visitors to join together for a moment of pure joy. The visiting band tuba players come together with the mv tubas and all perform. While change can be good, you have crossed a line coach fuente. Worry about football and not messing with traditions.

It's not a Hokies Football game without the Hokie Pokie. You want tough? That's what the players and the roar of the fans show the other team on the field. Don't break a tradition.

Class of 2005 This should absolutely continue to be at every single home game. It is such a storied and treasured piece of Hokie tradition that I forced my wife to have the Hokie-Pokie at our wedding!
