    Hey, y’all. Longtime lurker, first time posting, figured this was a good thread to chime in on. “Won’t bow down” comes from an old Mardi Gras Indian song called “Indian Red”. I dig that we’re using something that ties into the culture down here as opposed to “do it big” which was lame af. Good move��

    It's fine. Maybe it feels more special as a slogan if you're from New Orleans yourself and have that connection to that song and stuff. For me, as a foreigner, it just seems kind of generic. I get that it's not really 'for' me though, so I'm not complaining, it's just not special to me.

    Here is the definitive version. Recorded by the Wild Magnolias. The tribe's chief was Big Chief Jolly, the uncle of the Neville Brothers. Fun fact: This recording came from the album that got the Neville Brothers to come together for the 1st time on wax and later form a group.
    I'm looking for real sports fans...not sheep! Are you with me?!!!

    Awesome, hope it gets the locals hyped and gets a few people's attention Like I said, I get that it's not really 'for' me, so it's not really a big deal if it doesn't speak to me personally

    Yeah won’t bow down is a slogan for New Orleans fans, as it should be. I’m hyped and I want a shirt.

    Don't worry New Orleans has its own vibe and quirks that is unique only there. If you ever want to get a better feel for NO you should check out some of its mardi gras music stations. This is one i listen to: https://www.pandora.com/station/play...00632292528102

    Or....become one with us. You are active enough on this board. Jam the song, read the lore, allow yourself to become a local. You belong.
