"The Cougar Song," often colloquially referred to as "The Cougar Fight Song," "The BYU Fight Song," or "Rise and Shout, The Cougars Are Out," is the school fight song of Brigham Young University. It is often played at BYU sporting events, especially at BYU football games. On these occasions it is traditional for the fans to remain seated, singing along with the verse, then stand for the chorus and chant—giving literal meaning to the phrase "rise and shout."
