HURRAY FOR OUR SIDE

Hello One And All:

Where did the expression Hurray for our side come from?  Or how did it get started?  One explanation for this expression is as follows, --- although I cannot verify if this is the truth or just another story that was made up to suit the occasion.  

A long time ago Lady Godiva rode naked through the Main Street of the town where she lived on the back of a horse.  The guys on each side of the street would call out in their glee:  "Hurray for our side."
