Sit next to me and you'll learn the game as you have never known it before. Even Boeheim listens to me...proof, I have a transmitter in his nose and when I make a suggestion it vibrates and he has to touch it to hear me.

Is that you, Igor?

I do not know this Igor that you speak of.

There's always a lot of dumb stuff said at any sporting event. My favorite of the year so far was in our first game. There's like 2 minutes left in the second half, and a guy behind me leans over to his buddy and says, "Hey, Why hasn't Jerami Grant done ANYTHING tonight?" I turned around, didn't say a word, and simply pointed at Jerami in his street clothes. I think he got the message.

And I'd like to add one. People who arrive late and have to get their seats while the ball is in play. It used to be that people would have the decency to wait until there was a dead ball or break in the action to come barreling down the isle.

I 99% would never do it, but I've thought about throwing a leg out to trip said perpetrators.

Ha i had a guy behind me that game say out loud "time to put in grant jimmy". Literally 5 different people proceeded to point to him on the bench in street clothes and tell him he was suspended. He shut up real quick.

Oh yeah? Well, I didn't even notice Grant wasn't playing! Top that one, if you dare!

I yell "stop and pop" a lot.

I wonder if I'm annoying anyone?

For the record... I don't care

I don't yell stop and pop but your second part about not caring is 100% me. Me upsetting you for my in game shenanigans isn't my problem, its yours... 'merica. I believe my catch phrase is "Come on " and I say it after any missed oppurtunity. So if there is 10 loose balls and cuse gets 5. I have already said come on 5 times. If we shoot 33 Fts and hit only 22... I have said it another 11 times. In any given night I will have said come on nearly 100 times in a 2 hour time frame. Deal with it you sobs.

Oh come on now. How many times have you yelled out stuff that you thought was profound and to the point only to find out you were just drunk and yelled "Hutkbwhg Boeheim ihgkbjgfg!" Everybody looks you like what the heck did he say and you look around thinking you just answered the worlds problems and they are in awe of you.

Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

I'm late to this thread but it reminds me of something I heard at the Dome during the UConn game in 2012. An older gentleman sitting next to me spent much of the game explaining some of the finer points of basketball to his wife.

Then, he started screaming at the refs to call a five-second violation…while a UConn player was shooting a free throw.

His wife's response was the best part: "Are you sure it's five seconds for a free throw? I thought it was ten."
