******New Contest******** Unofficially it is the guess the exact game time GutterSnipe will be thrown out of the Laptop for banging his drum. I am down for 4:27 left in the 1st quarter.
How will you be able to throw anything? Obviously you must be one of those fans who sits on their hands during the game. Gutter Snipe should be applauded, not knocked down.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Artificial noise makers at sporting events are the stupidest idea mankind has ever created. We, as a race, should be ashamed.
Are you kidding??? I sneak in food from home (hot dogs, candy bars, flask of Crown). All I buy at the concession stand is a diet coke, because I don't want to gain weight. I figure I could peg the Little Drummer Boy with a mustard dog, and only be set back around a dollar.
I don't get why you guys don't like a Drum. In Vancouver durin hockey games, it livins things up when a drummer plays a beat that everybody can clap to.
I got it at H&H music on 1-10 for about $18 bucks. It's about 8 inches in diameter. If anyone should be thrown out, it's the damn fans who sit on their hands and don't support their team. I agree that those air horns fans used to bring were ridiculous, but I'm happy to have something to supplement my voice - which gets very sore by the end of a game. My only hope is to pump up my section into making more noise. If everyone could do that, we could have a loud stadium and a home court advantage. Anyway, if anybody is looking for something like it, call and ask music stores if they have any frame drums.
That's it. I've got a fever...and the only prescription for a sit on their hands Rockets crowd is: MORE COWBELL!!!
I was gonna say this before, but since i'm not from Houston i can't really speak intelligently about this. However, if people get mad at somebody for bringin a drum to get the crowd going, then yes, they are poor fans. I mean, you guys got horrible attendance, at least TRY to make an effort of being a loud crowd to let your team know that you support them.
There is a difference between vocally supporting your team with cheers and rants and making crappy sound just for the hell of being loud. thunder sticks, bells, drums, air horns, whistles, and anything but a voice should be banned.
