Traditions

=Animals of Section B=

Before the home half of the 5th inning, a group of fans known as 'The Animals of Section B', lead the Seminoles crowd in singing the Canadian national anthem, O Canada. This tradition is claimed to have started on February 13, 1988, during the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, when FSU was playing Grambling State University. During the bottom of the 5th inning, with the score tied 2–2, a member of The Animals began humming the Canadian anthem. As the Seminoles began to rally for more and more runs, more Animals joined in the humming and the team scored eight runs that inning.{{cite web | url=http://nolefan.org/summary/ba1988.html#1988_02_13 | title=1988 Baseball - Year in Review }} With baseball being a sport with a long history of superstition, The Animals have maintained the tradition ever since.

=Sunday Golds=

File:FSU 3B Sherman Johnson. (7390397138).jpg

A tradition that began during the Mike Martin era, the Seminoles wear their gold uniforms for every game that they play on a Sunday.
