...doing what h8 does best. His excitement is contagious
Weekday Fare
By MOLLY MANNING
- Staff Writer
The UNC Tar Heels have just intercepted a pass.
Thousands of arms stretch toward a Carolina blue sky
and sway back and forth to the rhythmic chant: "North-Ca-ro-li-na."
The crowd breaks into a deafening cheer that echoes
from the forested outskirts of Kenan Stadium:
"Carolina. Carolina, fight fight fight!"
And down in front of the student section, a fellow
wearing blue jeans, white shirt, rainbow-colored
suspenders and a basketball as a helmet dances a jig with
his microphone and emits a jubilant war whoop.
The man behind the mike for the past two football
seasons is Tim Joyce, better known as Itch, a natural
comic whose energetic personality is the same whether
he is leading cheers or working as night manager at
Sadlack's.
Although people tell him he reminds them of Mork on
the CBS televisipn show Mork and Mind Itch said his
performance as mike-man is no act.
"It's all my natural personality," he said, grinning. "I
always run my mouth." j
At Saturday's game against Cincinnati, running his
mouth cost Itch 35 push-ups' in the middle of the field.
He had promised the crowd one push-up for every
point scored and vowed to do them mid-field if the Tar
Heels made five touchdowns.
The fans loved it and cheered him on.
. Itch, 23, describes himself as "antsy."
"I like doing things, meeting people," he said.
He already lias a degree in business administration,
but after seven months as a chemicals salesman in
Memphis, Tenn.. he decided he was not happy doing
that kind of work.
So he came, back to UNC and is now classified as a
junior physical education major. He will earn a teaching
certificate. -
"I love working with kids." Itch said. "And that's what
I want to do." He said he would like to work with a youth
camp like Camp Seagull in New Bern, where he has
worked for five years.
Itch got his nickname his freshman year when he
played junior varsity soccer and his suitemates in league
began calling him Jock.
"That soon became Jock-itch, and then it was
shortened to just 'Itch. " he said.
His freshman year also marked the beginning of his
basketball helmet tradition.
"It was once a good basketball, but it popped." he said
sadly. "I was heart-broken."
Rather than casting the ball aside. Itch transformed it
into a war helmet to be used in water battles between
Teague and Avery.
Itch wore the basketball when he auditioned for the
mike-man job last year. Varsity cheerleaders were the
judges, and 20 people tried out.
"Some people did skits and things." he said. "I just
came out and ran my mouth."
Candidates also had to add their own touch to one
standard cheer. That was when Itch came up with"U-N-C:
bourbon, whiskey, gin; Tar Heels. Tar Heels; drink
and win."
Ross Coppage. co-head of the cheerleading team, said
that confidence is the main characteristic sought in a
mike-man.
"He has to be able to speak clearly and handle himsel!
in front of a crowd." he said. "Itch has been great to work
with."
Timing is the real key. Itch said. He chooses the
moments for the most popular cheers according to what
is happening on the field.
" I he cheers that people say are over-used are the ones
they love to do the best." he said.
Itch said the biggest mistake he has made as mike-man
was last year when he led a cheer called "throw the
bomb."
He asked the crowd to tear paper into conlctti and
also make a ball of paper. Everyone was to yell "throw
the bomb." throw the paper balls up, make a whistling
noise like a bomb and then throw th- confetti.
"The cheer was great," he said. "But after it was over,
everybody started throwing the paper wads at me. I got
pelted for about five minutes."
Itch does not plan to use "throw the bomb" again, but
he has taken his chances with "aerial attack." In which
fans throw paper airplanes.
This year's restriction against bringing containers into
the games has not changed the crowd much. Itch
believes.
"There are just as many drunks up there." he said.
Only one aspect of the new rule bothers him:
"Everybody knows the drunker you get, the better the
mike-man gets." he said.
