Is it time for the clapping until first bucket to die?

Sadly, neither the Dome Knitter nor Dome Eddie made the cut.

The Knitter used to irk me, I’ll admit. “Hey this game and place are so boring that I’m going to do some knitting!”

The only reason it was deflating was bc it would take 20 mins to score some games. Never get rid of this. It’s something I look forward to seeing on tv or in person. Wish the wave came back for football games. Great childhood memories then with that

You're right...keep the traditions. Upgrade the damn offense. If there's a problem that's it, not the clapping.

Shame on you.

IMHO, we have few traditions. We should be looking to create more, not throw away the ones that are still around...

Yes, I remember going to the Final Four in 2013 which Louisville ended up winning. I was very impressed by the choreography of the fans and bands for the three other teams. We were woefully inadequate.

Clapping was a bad tradition when we had good offenses too.

I can make my butt cheeks clap, but I have to have my pants down.

In recent years it was at its best when Welcome to the Jungle was the lead off song and set the clapping tempo.

Yes, now they have “songs” you can barely recognize. There’s no cue as to when to stand up and start clapping. There’s no pizazz! No oomph! No HERE WE GO!

This must be corrected. Now I’m getting agitated.

We could go back to this.

Or not.

I wouldn't mind this:

 

[two3zone]

Imagine sitting in the 300s and hearing a muffled clap while thinking someone ripped a ripe one only to turn around and a hairy ass twerking next to your head.

Would have to make Sportscenter top 10.

This thread is starting to smell...

Seems criminal for one of MY threads to get derailed. I would NEVER!

 

[HOFCeluck]

I wouldn't mind this:

Didn’t we used to?

This or Hells Bells would be great.

It’s like having a flat on your Subaru Outback.

Hold my beer...

We only play Hells Bells on 3rd down when we shake our keys.

 

[HOFCeluck]

we shake our keys.

Hahaha th is might be the only tradition we have that makes clapping look good.

Speaking of, what is Red's walkup song going to be. Maybe a little old school hip hop. JAB's was Springsteen. Important decision for Red.

I now fully expect this topic show up on social media by some local media members. Wouldn't be the first time the media got their info from here.

“Coach, why did you lose the game? Was it a lack of rebounding? Foul trouble? Shots just weren’t falling?”

“No, none of those. It was the clapping of the crowd.”

They started the game on an 18-0 run.

 

[miamicuse]

What about the tradition of having a designated opponent fan stripped down to her underwear?

I humbly submit Boom! Shake the Room by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince for Red's walkup music consideration.

Even cooler if edited to Boom! Shake the Dome.

I think everyone should stand and clap until it’s taco time.

The clapping shouldn’t start until after taco time. Energy will never be an issue.
