    Utah is the king of taunting yes. Are we going to keep quiet? Nah. We have a choice.
    Rowdies, your mission: GET ROWDIER, Let us do something to inspire 99% of the crowd to follow.

    Let's give the Jazz a taste of their medicine. C'mon!!!!!!!!!!! We can do this!

    Anybody please share ideas to get the crowd rowdier!

    I agree, it's on the Rowdies!

    We can get the sluggish Houston Home crowds pumped up.....This is our time, this is our gym.

    Let's do this!

    It just seems the past few years HCA hasn't seemed like a huge advantage for us in the playoffs, this year it needs to be!!

    I won't be sitting down with the Rowdies, but you better believe I'll be screaming at the Jazzholes the entire game.

    Taunting the players is good, if you're in the first few rows just say their name over and over in an annoying voice. :p

    Got an idea. We need volunteers!!!

    How about 3 guys in the front row seat wearing Jazz jerseys and taunting the Jazz players whenever they make a mistake, like foul called, blocked shots.... a missed shot.

    C'MON!!!!

    Depends on what happens, I'm very spontaneous as to what sort of things I might suddenly scream at them.

    The Rowdies do their part, but if the rest of the arena doesn't get into the act.....
    Half a percent of the arena can only do so much on their own (and they do far more than what should be possible, when you think about how small a fraction they are of the crowd).

    I've always felt that the only thing the Rowdies could do better is focus on getting EVERYONE in the place to be a Rowdy. They work over Toyota Center pre-game, and work sections 114 and 113 a little at spots, so they do try. But an all out "Everyone Be a Rowdy" focus could really electrify the atmosphere and get things on the same level as we saw toward the end of the 22-game win streak.

    I'm a rowdie and I have a lot of nasty crap to say! I'm saying it really loud and don't let it get quiet for a few seconds because I will definitely take advantage of that opportunity to say something like Cryolinko your wife had bigger balls then you!

    They need to do some extra work during pregame by talking to eveyone coming in to the arena. that will get them the message.

    I was thinking more a long the lines of spreading out into the various sections of the arena at the start of the 2nd and 4th quarters to rally the fans.

    The chants and all are good, but I don't think they realize how indecipherable most of them are. It's great that they're witty, but the majority of them are impossible to hear clearly enough to understand, and I say this as someone that sat only a few seats away from them for a dozen games this year. Those chants are doomed to never catch on around the arena, which otherwise would be nice to see happen.
