The rumor that “Ay Ziggy Zoomba” replaced the University’s fight song “Forward Falcons” is false.
The internal publication error for Zoom News was made that said it replaced Forward Falcons. Zoom News is sent out to the faculty and staff and posted online.
The error has since been corrected online and through social media, according to an email from Dave Kielmeyer, University spokesperson.
The rumor blew up on social media, Kielmeyer said.
The Board of Trustees resolution said at the bottom of the document “Trustees names ‘Ay Ziggy Zoomba’ to serve alongside ‘Forward Falcons’ as an official fight song of Bowling Green State University.”
