Now there's a good idea!

The smaller video screens did have a few "get loud" type graphics when UConn had the ball, shooting ft's etc. I imagine the same glitch that kept the score and stats off the big board may have kept any other graphics from going up there, too.

Cameron Indoors boos all the time, as does the Smith Center fyi but I know what you mean.


Cameron does'nt boo for player intros. At least not when I was there...


The Mustang Band has, in the past, said things like "Who's he?" "Who cares?" "Go home!" for opposing player intros. If they did it yesterday, it was drowned out by the annoying booing. With some clever opponent scouting, you can come up with themed phrases for intros -- like yesterday, someone should have had something in German for UCONN's German starter.

Everyone poo poos the cheer sheets from Cameron, but that is how one side of the stadium can tell what the students who initiate a cheer are chanting even if you can't quite make it out. You can usually kind of sort of hear a word or 2, and then reference the sheet to join in.

A&M students used to hold newspapers up in front of their faces during visiting team intros...a thing of the past, but we "ancients" thought that was pretty clever

then I'm sure you appreciated their "Sit down Mr. Bus Driver" chant too

Total Team Effort! From Cannen Cunningham to Sterling Brown to Keith Frazier to of course Nic Moore, we looked like a legit Top 25 Basketball Team. So proud to be a Mustang! It has been too long :)
