This is a very real concern.  The good news is that the SU AD office has a council to hear the concerns of the fanbase, and they take the feedback provided very seriously.

While past administrations have blared ads almost non stop during timeouts, it was mostly Mr Excitement droning on about some sponsor.  Not super loud heavy metal or rap, combined with strobe lights and spinning lasers.  The current one has actually been pretty darned good about avoiding the sensory attacks you get during breaks in the action at pro hockey games.

I don't think that is going to change.  What will change is that you will be able to understand the PA announcer, and you will be able to understand the audio when videos are played on the scoreboards.  Things like player introductions, interviews from the coach at halftime, highlights from other games, and yes, probably the weather forecast for the drive home.

I think we are in good hands.  But it doesn't hurt to start the feedback from the fans now about how we, the Syracuse fanbase do not want the pro hockey/pro basketball sensory assault many other arenas like to deploy.  The SSS and SUMB should be highlighted, along with game related info spoken in a normal tone.

Thanks for listening John Wildhack and company.
