where did rammer jammer yellow hammer come from
University of Alabama traditions The "Rammer Jammer Cheer"[9] is a traditional cheer. The lyrics originate from The Rammer-Jammer, a student magazine in the 1920s,[10] and the yellowhammer, Alabama's state bird. The term "yellowhammer" was originally used to describe Confederate soldiers from Alabama who wore bright yellow cloth on their uniforms; when the soldiers marched into the city of Hopkinsville, Kentucky, supporters of the Confederacy cheered them with the chant "yellowhammer, yellowhammer." During and after the American Civil War, the term continued to be used and Alabama became known as the "Yellowhammer State."[11]
