I’m sure most of you have heard a chant/cheer using the tune/cadence I’m talking about, but it’s really hard to describe something like this in text. Most of the chants that use this tune starts with “Let’s go” and then some two-syllable word following it. For example, “Let’s go Jackets” or “Let’s go Buckeyes”.
What I’m asking is whether there’s a name for that particular tune/cadence and/or if there’s an origin story behind it.
Brilliant answer,
I’ll chip in, just due to how counter-intuitive it is, but trochee is not pronounced how it is spelled.
It’s Tro-key (kind of like smokey)
