Five Baseball Cheers Every Serious Fan Should Know
Baseball fans love to cheer on their favorite team. Before you can even call yourself a real baseball fan, you must be familiar with the following cheers.
The Standard 'Let's Go' Cheers

Here we go Yankees!
Version Two
Here we go Yankees, here we go! (Again, substitute your team's name.)

Here we go Yankees here we go!

We don't care how but
Strike him out!

We wanna see the bat break!

The Super Fan Arsenal
Of course, you can't really consider yourself a true baseball fan without your arsenal packed full of props to go with your baseball cheers. These are things that are must haves for any serious baseball aficionado.
Sharpie and a Baseball
You may well be wondering why on earth you'd bring a sharpie and a spare baseball to a game. Every serious baseball fans know that a sharpie and an extra baseball can come in very handy for catching those players' autographs.
The Drinking Hat
It's hot, you're thirsty and nothing will hit the spot quite like buying a couple of sodas and putting them in your drinking hat. Of course, drinking soda non-stop at a baseball game may render the need to use the facilities quite often and miss some of the game. However, the drinking hat is very popular at baseball games all over the place.
The Number One Finger
What baseball game would be complete without the giant number one foam finger? Of course, it's particularly useful if your great team is winning, but whether your team wins or looses, they still rank number one with you!
