The Wave

Despite claims by others, the Wave can trace its origin back to Husky stadium. It was october 31, 1981, when cheerleader Rob Weller . . . instructed the Washington crowd to . . . make a human wave that rolled around Husky Stadium. Weller’s original idea . . . was to have the crowd stand rapidly from the lowest seat to the highest. But they could not effectively coordinate the attempts."
