Sorry but it was in Patterson in '79. Before '83.

While the vaudeville chant goes back to at least the 30s I believe it's use in football has been traced to the 60s.

I was at the Jesuit St Aug game in '82 and that was the first time I heard it

I went to St. Louis Catholic High School in Lake Charles. Our mascot was Saints and we were doing a who dat cheer as far back as 78. Our cheer was a little different something like "Who dat talk'in about beat'in those Saints."

As long as ours came before the Bengals lame 'Who Dey' rip-off (which it did), then that's all that matters.

Awesome. The bourbon street bruisers. The Cajun crunch. Haha. Southern discomfort.

Actually, the "Who Dat" chant can be traced back to the Mayans around 1500 BC.

Kid in the center with the red jersey is Judge Benedict Willard. He's an embarrassment to '' Aug Nation'' , thank God for Leonard Fournette!

I was at the Jesuit - St. Aug basketball game in '79. That was the first time I heard it.

I consider myself to be a pretty cool customer but if a Bengals fan ever tried to tell me we got "Who Dat" from "Who Dey", I'm going off like Denzel at the end of Training Day.
