Florida State’s band, The Marching Chiefs, have set Twitter ablaze by playing “Neck” after several plays in Sunday’s game, including the first Seminoles touchdown of the game, a pass from Jordan Travis to Ontaria Wilson off a flea flicker.

Florida State band playing Neck is the petty I am here for.

LSU and its Golden Band have been playing “Neck” for decades. The tune is taken from song by the 1980’s funk band Cameo called “Talkin’ Out the Side of Your Neck.”
There are FSU fans on Twitter saying the band has played the tune on several occasions prior, so maybe it’s not a troll job, but it feels like one.
We’ll see if the Golden Band busts out the “War Chant” in response.
