While the Penn band's chant was truly in bad taste, I do get chuckles out of our Ivy student sections needling each other during Rivalry games.

The best example of Ivy students being clever was in 2004, when Yale students disguised as the Harvard Pep Squad tricked roughly 1,800 Harvard fans into holding up placards that spelled "WE SUCK" instead of "Go Harvard" during the annual Harvard-Yale football game.

Not to be outdone, the Harvard student section provided a wide array of witty signs when ESPN College GameDay visited Harvard during its rivalry game with Yale in 2014. The fans positioned their signs mocking Yale for TV cameras. Here are some of the funniest signs seen on ESPN included: Yale cites Wikipedia, Yale Kids Wear Crocs, This is my Yale Diploma, and My first sign was too erudite.

After all the friendly banter makes Rivalry Games even more fun.

Chill out people. The fans are just kids having fun..They are not seeking to insult nor claiming an elite status.
