"Seven Nation" chant & Ravens: is this our intangible "cheesehead", our "terrible towel"?
I recognize Baltimore didn't invent this chant, it goes back to Italian soccer fans. But in America, it is associated with one team - at least it is now.
Before the Super Bowl, people in Baltimore knew "Seven Nation Army" was a popular local chant.
AFTER the Super Bowl - the most watched program in American television history - the entire country now identifies the Ravens with the "Seven Nation Army" chant. From the random pregame show chants all the way to the eruptions inside the Superdome, it's a Ravens thing now.
The larger question is: is this part of our identity as Ravens fans now, or just a fad that will pass?
