Awesome! Congrats Weebl!
My fave Badgers memory is getting on a bus to Huddersfield in 2003 during peak Badgermania, after visiting some film festival thing with a few other b3tans. One of us quietly started singing badgerbadgerbadgerbadger as you do, the rest of us joined in, naturally, but then some random kids at the back of the bus started singing along. It snowballed from there, in about 30 seconds nearly everyone on board was yelling BADGERBADGERBADGERBADGEMUSHROOOOMMUSHROOOM at the top of their voices. The bus driver assumed, not unreasonably, that his passengers had all gone completely mad and were about to riot, and promptly floored it, belting past every stop all the way back into town, I think he even may have run some red lights. He reached the bus station, screeched to a halt and demanded that we all get off immediately. Got us to the pub about ten minutes quicker than expected, which was nice.
Also: 20 years bloody hell. *crumbles into dust*

Hiii tomsk! That was actually the day or day after it came out.
There was a screening of Domo Darko up there so I hadn't actually seen the Badgers yet, only experienced other ppl recreating/singing it. I made a b3tan 'cover' version from the footage when I got home.
