How was the barking

[OTRMUSKIE]

I heard people bark the first few times on tv but then it was sporadic as the game went on. How was it in person? Is it lame?

I’m not a fan of it. It seemed to be mostly the bench and the student section.

Instead of barking, could the crowd shout "zip em' up" after a kill?

[OTRMUSKIE]

I like zip em up or gun shots then tell zip em up Johnny

I gotta be honest, the barking is kind of lame. Yell, scream, make some noise......but I don't think the barking is going to make it.

It was............odd

It was RUFF!

bark, meow, hoot like an owl... they can do whatever they want as long as they don't start slapping the ground when the opposing PG brings the ball up the court again

I thought the extra cheering it brought was a welcome change.

the students do. No one else does. I actually kind of like it, although I don't plan on personally doing any barking. Xeus gets a little upset when humans try to steal canine culture.

It was very odd. I think we ought to mix it up more and bark after three stops, meow after four, moo after five and sing a Diana Ross song if we ever get to six.

It's also code for defense being even more critical this season. Who cares if the fucks from UC and Butler tease our fans about it?

I did not notice any “barking”.

I am thankful for that. I hope I can forget this nonsense before the next game.

Would it be in bad taste to record the sound of an actual body bag zip, and amplify it with 1500 watts?

It's not as lame as the Tinker Bell sound when both free throws are made (this year it should be a trumpets, confetti and fireworks).

I like the defensive intensity it seems to emphasize and the added focus it brings to that part of the game - as opposed to glorifying the offensive scoring alone. I'm not sure there is a realistic better option (zippers not withstanding)

You mean the sounds from Sonic The Hedgehog and Super Mario Bros (after and-1s)?
