Jeremy Abbott's Big Voiced Fan???

[kiss-n-cry]

I have been watching US Nationals videos of Jeremy Abbott and it is driving me nuts that I can't make out what this big booming voice yells out to him just before he hits his opening pose. Anyone know what he is saying????

I believe that it is his stepfather. Allen Scott:

That's his step-dad, Allen Scott. Before every one of Jeremy's performances, he shouts out to him, "GO ALEXANDER!"

Thank you! That is what I thought but I wasn't sure. My mom said it was "Roll over Texas," but she did get the step-dad part right. You settled our debate.

Why "Go Alexander"?

Alexander is one of Jeremy's many personalites. It's the one that performs best under pressure.

I always thought he was saying "Lower The Globe!"

I want to believe that this explanation is true.

As do I!
May "Alexander" inspire him at Nationals and Worlds this season.

Are you insinuating that Abbott is a globe-lower(-er)?
