TCR’s Twitter account, @Champaign_Room, (and Facebook page!) sends out a tweet with #IlliniPulse asking for your opinion on something every Monday night, and we post out the best answers in this article every Tuesday!
This week we asked for your best stories about the famous I-L-L, I-N-I call and response, and you guys answered! Here are some of the best stories!
The day Lovie was hired I was in the Orlando airport wearing an Illini 1/4zip. At security, a guy 3 gates away yells "ILL! WE GOT LOVIE!"

New Orleans, Mardi Gras, 2005. @intelwarrior & I started an I-L-L chant, you could hear I-N-I echoing throughout Bourbon St. It was awesome.

Riding the subway, on the way to the last Illini Rose Bowl game. 100's of fans screaming I-L-L I-N-I.

I met @MeyersLeonard11 in airport in LA last year, he I-L-L'ed as a goodbye. I didn't want to blow up his spot talking to him. He was great
