Some social media trends are more viral than others, and the latest, simply known as “67,” is one of them.
The absurd phrase has exploded on TikTok and Instagram and is especially popular among middle schoolers, but now it seems the LSU women’s basketball team likes it too.

And right on cue, the arena erupted with “67” chants and hand gestures to match. Players, fans and even LSU head coach Kim Mulkey joined in on the madness.
“67”, pronounced “six-seven”, was named Word of the Year 2025 by Dictionary.com and comes from a song called “Doot Doot (6 7)” by Skrilla, but later became popular in basketball references. The expression really has no defined meaning but is commonly used among college students.

And Tuesday’s match brought together nearly 9,000 schoolchildren. This was LSU’s annual field trip game featuring students from the greater Baton Rouge area. The decisive 67th point was clearly a highlight of the match for the 8,743 students present.
“They loved it,” Mulkey said after the game, via team website. “I said to myself, ‘God bless the teachers.’ That’s my first thought. My second thought is that there is a little girl in this booth who wants to wear this uniform one day, who wants to be at LSU as a student one day, maybe not even play sports. That’s what I told the team. There are little girls who were you and some of them, this might be the first and last time they see you play. Leave an impression.”
