    Ed, think college football, American style.

    Ed, try the following. "Rah, rah, sis boom bah, go team go." How do you cheer a team on in aussieland?

    Ed, the University of Alabama football team is called the Crimson Tide, and our battle-cry/greeting to other fans is "Roll Tide Roll." Roll Tide is just an abbreviated version. There's a back story about where the name came from, but it's confusing and the fact that our mascot is an elephant doesn't help.

    Nothing will change, just that soon, you'll have a bit of paper to say you're technically an Aussie.
