I think mine has to be the planting of a tree in Buckeye Grove for every all american, or Skull sessions, but I'm curious as to what other people think of as their favorite Buckeye Tradition.

Want to say hello?
We love hearing from you! Whether you want to work with us, discuss advertising opportunities, or pass us a hot tip, you're more than welcome to drop us a line.
I just graduated, so I'm a bit partial to the Mirror Lake Jump. Also, singing Carmen Ohio after the game is awesome.
I lived in Morrill this past year and Buckeye Grove looked/looks awful. It really is a shame with how bad it looks right now. Honestly I love Stadium O-H-I-O. Also I really enjoy Seven Nation Army, even if we didn't start it, which we didn't by any means, we do it as well as anyone else; plus it gets the students going and we're all way louder than you blue hairs. I've also grown fond of the "The" in tOSU, it really pisses off all of my friends at NCSU and UNC so that's a plus. Though out of all Ohio State traditions my two favorites are Script Ohio and Carmen Ohio.
@ William - That's "Graybeards" to you, sonny, not blue hairs.

Singing Carmen and jumping in mirror lake.
There are so many great traditions, but nothing will top Script Ohio for me.
Still not a fan of the "THE" though...
Idk if this counts as a tradition but I like the black guy u always see on gameday decked out in white haha I always look for that dude. How does he not have account here.
Script Ohio brings me to the verge of tears every time...I love that 5 minutes
@Shadybuck
F### THAT GUY. He is a giant asswipe. Dude is a scalper and has a masive ego. He is forbidden from the student sections because he is a media-whoring douchebag.
Cause I couldn't go for three
@ buckeye06, when the band comes out of the tunnel and marches across the field I struggle to keep it together. Nothing like it!
I know there's a game saturday, and my ass will be there.
I don't struggle during "Script Ohio", I full out cry my eyes out.
I was at the first mirror lake jump - so that's a good one. That was a big night in Columbus! But there is nothing like Script Ohio. I went up to the Gator Bowl this year and was filming it at halftime & might have shed a tear or two...

I like to wobble in my shoes.
Get the chills every time Carmen plays
Script Ohio! I remember being of the field when Jack Nicklaus dotted the I. It was one of those surreal moments that you just cannot describe in words.
Script Ohio... nothing like it.
@William... Seven Nation Army? really? I hate that. I really do. I liked it better when the West side of the stadium would scream "OH" and the east side would scream "IO" followed by just a bunch of deafening noise leading up to the kickoff. The lack of any songs playing over the PA was what made the leadup to the kickoff special. I really wish we'd go back to that. This isn't the Premier League. This is Buckeye Football. Seven Nation Army sucks.
My favorite tradition is kicking Michigan's ass!
Am I right? Am I right?
GO BUCKEYES!!!!
F--- Michigan!
I was a buckeye fan before mirror lake and a buckeye diehard for life after my first one freshman year, so many good ones but mirror lake is crazy, sucks they had to move the date though.
My own personal order from highest to lowest (things that were mentioned):
