Part of the Marching Illini's Three-In-One tradition. From the Daily Illini: "The Three in One is the traditional Marching Illini halftime performance. During the performance, the crowd stands and sings in unison. Previously, the “Three-in-One” coincided with the performance of Chief Illiniwek. During the singing of “Hail to the Orange,” students join arms and sway to the song. The show includes three songs: “The Pride of the Illini,” “The March of the Illini” and “Hail to the Orange.”' https://dailyillini.com/sports-stories/2007/05/26/illini-cheers-and-traditions/

This song, composed in 1907, celebrates the enthusiasm of University of Illinois fans and students. Guild was inspired by his time as a student at Brown to encourage some of the rigor and spirit found at Brown in Illini sporting events. Until this point, "bleacher singing" was almost completely absent from sports at the University of Illinois. With this rousing piece and the pieces "The Illinois Loyalty Song" and "Illinois Celebration Song", Guild successfully animated the participation of fans at Illini games.
