"Heeeyyyyyyy!!"

I have no idea what team started the whole "Hey!" thing, but I think it's great.
Walking around Six Flags on Saturday, you see any team and go "Heyyy!" and they go "Heyyy!" back. And another team close by hears you and goes "Heyyy!" as well, so you of course have to respond...It could go on forever. It was awesome.
Maybe it was just me, but I think that was among the funnest things about Houston.

Really? Hmm...None of my team mates ever tell me anything about previous years (it's my first year).
I mean, 814 was at nats last year, they could have said "Yeah, there was a 'hey' thing going on last year too" but nooo...just leave Alaina to be naive and clueless...

Yeah, it started last year.

It's actually an "ehhhhhh"... they were originally making fun of the Canadians.

It kind of morphed into a Fonzie-esque "ayyyyyyyy" and even a "heeeeey", but now you all know the truth.

This has to be the closest thing to an urban legend that FIRST has. Everyone has their own version of this story. Everyone claims to have started it, or that it is eh, hey, yay, ayy etc. I know for my team we used to say "hey" 3 years ago at universal city walk when we went over on the weekends. When we got to nats that year we decided to bring it along. We have pushed it every year since. Truth is it is simple enough of a joke that i'm sure it has been around as long or longer than most of us to be alive. The important thing is everyone has fun with it.

Making fun of us!??? We thought they were trying to fit in () I remember it being really big when after the team party at Epcot, when everyone was waiting in line for the buses...

I remember taking part in the "ehhhhhhh" last year while we were waiting for the "boos," and at least we didn't have to pay a "dole-er" to get on them. (The guy who started my rookie team last year was from Canadia, so we had fun mocking his pronunciations.)

If anyone puts 'Eh' and 'Y'all' in the same sentence, I'll know FIRST is having some strange effects on culture...
