I would ignore it to start with, then I would probably ask them to stop.
If it continues, I might remind them it is a violation of stadium policy, and indicatethat I would be back shortly with stadium security.
This **** cost us $30,000. last year, and is not necessary.
might not be apopular move, but ....

about ringing his bell at the wrong time. The kid was having a ball up to that point. Sucked all the life out of the kid. Wanted to slug the broad.
So, obviously a one-size-fits-all approach to bell policing will not fly.

Along with other things such as "Hey *******, you're costing us $25,000, Respect the Bell"... That way, I can make noise on defense and yell at these people too.
For the most part, these people pay no attention to me though. To get these people to stop ringing at improper times, they are going to need a lot more pressure.
I say give them hell, and encourage others to give em hell.

Where were the parents of the 9 yr old? First of all, any dressing down should have been addressed to them. Secondly, I don't care if you are dead right a total stranger is not going to get away with berating my kid in my presence.
There are going to be idiots that think the rules don't apply to them (adults, not kids) and in my opinion you gotta start kicking butts out of the stadium if they abuse the rules. Can't get everybody every game but if you start bouncing a few the word will spread. For the life of me I will never understand how a human being with enough sense to dress themselves and find their way into a football stadium cannot, or will not follow such simple rules.

have a roving camera zoom in on those not "respecting the bell" and putthem on the Dawgzilla tron. With the crowd booing them compliance would be almost immediate. I know everyone is going to say "you can't do that we the game in action" but you could tape delay it and show it between plays.

Nothing like a little negative reinforcement to force rule abiding.
I like what Scott says before the game about asking them POLITELY to please stop ringing. I think most people would stop if asked in a nice way. If not, then that's their problem, and then it's going to be even more of their problem when the other fans get on them, and as a last resort, then you go to security. But again, that should be a last resort.
Also, I think that's the problem with the "holier than thou" crowd in general. If someone is saying something more times than not, they will go off on someone, and that just makes whomever is yelling, cursing, etc. even more upset. Again, going off on someone should be a last resort. And to be honest, publicly going off on someone- even if they are doing something "wrong"- to me that's just as bad and just as attention whorish as yelling all game long.
Funny story from the LSU game- I was watching the game, and a guy two or three rows down from me just all of a sudden out of the blue turned around and yelled at me- "HOW LONG HAVE YOU PLAYED DEFENSE?" I did the look around and point at myself "are you talkng to me?" thing. Along with the other guys around me. Then the guy said "Yeah you! How long have you played defense?! Just shut up and watch the game." I then told him "I haven't said anything about the defense all day" I then realized he meant to yell at the guy behind me who was yelling about the defense (and was saying some pretty dumb stuff, but I always let it slide) and he obviously thought it was me. It was pretty funny. But then I wondered how often the wrong person gets accused of something like that at a football game. First time that has ever happened to me. But again, another instance where being polite and the guy would have avoided looking like an ***. I got asked how long I have played defense no less than eight times after that by the people around me.
I should have told him that I played middle linebacker at South Panola, or maybe more believably JA.

What happened to the belief that the rule was wrong and targeted just MSU?
How many of you had hissy-fits when the bells were ringing back when they were banned all together? "Oh my word, those things aren't allowed! When will these ruffians learn! Rules are made to be followed!"
There used to be discussions of how to properly sneak in your cowbell! Now its, "Sir, please refrain from ringing your artificial noisemaker. It is against the conference rules. Thank you for understanding!"
And now somebody is complaining about a fan ringing two bells?
What the hell has happened to the defiant MSU fan base that rang bells for all those years REGARDLESS of policy?
They gave an inch and, instead of taking or demanding a mile, the fan base has bent over and taken that inch with a smile!
What a damn joke.

Regardless of whether you think the cowbell compromise was or wasn't a good thing, here are the facts:
If we ring at the wrong times, we get fined. Note: even though the rules are "half time, timeouts, before game," as we learned at the Upig game last year, we can ring them 95% of the game. Just don't ring when our team is lining up until the play is concluding (we never did - that's distracting our own team) and from the time the huddle breaks for the other team's offense to that play coming to a conclusion. This is literally no more than about 15 minutes of the entire 4 hours+ you'll be in the stadium. Are you that big of a retard you can't control yourself for a few seconds at a time?
Second, yelling is louder than ringing, we learned that too. The transition of sound from one to the other is badass either way it goes.
Third, I assume this mean's you're one of those meatheads that rings his bell at the wrong times on purpose just to be a rebel. Go 17ing die.

You aren't "respecting the bell" if you break the precious rules which are...and correct me if I'm wrong...after State scores, between quarters, pregame, timeouts, and halftime.
Thank you SEC, may we have another?
I'm glad to hear people ringing them when they damn well please! We have State fans wanting to contact security on State fans for ringing a cowbell! That's awesome!
Whats next? Sit down so the people behind you can see the game? The argument should still be that the rules shouldn't be in place. I understand the school, AD, coaches taking the company line...but fans?
I'm with the two who said to let it go. I mean, a few of us retards carrying on a tradition will not matter if enough sheep follow the precious rules.

I take it you mad.
Do you know why 98% of the fanbase still rings the bell during times not specifically designated, but is quiet during certain times, while you clang around cluelessly? Common sense, and trial and error. The reason the cowbell is frowned upon is because some feel it distracts the opposing offense, and may cause them to do things like not hear plays and jump offsides. So we quiet ourselves then. Let's say State's on offense, and we just caught a pass and are running for a first down. We ring; not to distract, but to celebrate. We rang like hell when such plays happened late last year, in those games we were not fined for. Thus, the SEC sends a message that it's an okay time to ring. Common sense. Please grow some.
I kind of feel like I'm wasting the effort, and that the oncoming diarrhea of the fingers in your next post will prove me right, but perhaps if I can help 1 out of every 50 retards, I can make a difference.
Also, my analysis of you seems to have been spot on. Keep on stickin' it to the man, you rebel, you. Nobody will silence your love for the school, the school which is expressly telling you not to do exactly what you're doing.

I suppose the "Go 17ing die" wasn't an indication of how you felt. Does that not count as "diarrhea of the fingers?" Regardless...
The reason the cowbell is frowned upon is because it is a unique tradition within this conference that one school has used a tool to enhance home field advantage. Not to mention it is annoying as hell if you are not a State fan.
The bottom line is the "respect the bell" policy severely limits when the bell is allowed to be used. The truth of the matter is, if the SEC wants to fine MSU it will. And it will likely come as result of the other schools raising hell. It will matter little whether or not the bell was respected or not. For every fine the school has received, they've looked the other way 99 other times. That's like 98% of the time.
If you want to be a sheep and ring it during the few times when its "allowed" then so be it. If you want to turn somebody in for not "respecting the bell" then go for it.
(The truth is, you and I aren't talking about drastically different things. You clearly break the official rules. Most of the fans do. I do. I love it. They can shove those rules. They'll fine the school ONLY when they get enough complaints from other schools and feel they have to set an example.)
Am I to understand you "respected the bell" for so many years and left them at home or in your tailgating tent while some of us rebels (which it is hysterically ironic to call me a rebel) were sneaking them in?

Again, I'm responding the specific rules regarding the "respect the bell" policy. I think the limitations are silly. The fact is the bell has been ringing for decades. It was ringing when it was banned. It rings now during times we should be "respectful." I just get annoyed to see suggestions where some State fans want to report other State fans to security and/or have their bells collected because they aren't "respecting" the bell. That is sad.
Hell, even humpingahoop acknowledges that he and 98% of the fans do not "respect the bell." I'm fine with that. In fact, I encourage it.
Of all the suggestions, at least you recognize a level headed approach. (Except I wouldn't want the video board to show "bad dawgs" between plays. I want to see replays so I can scream that we are getting screwed on every call!)
The only time I'd ever say something to a fan for ringing a bell would if they are dumb enough to ring it when State is on offense. And from my experience, the bells only get louder when we cause a delay of game or false start.
The school is practically forced to push this "respect" issue. As an extension, Mullen is as well. Understandable. Behind close doors, anybody at any level who has any history of being a State fan can only grin from ear to ear when a cowbell works in our favor. You do as well.
I see the issue as the leeway given isn't leeway at all. There should be no limitations.

Screw you man.People like you are ruining our tradition. The reason you need to obey the rules is because it's illegal. Not only that, but when the fans stop ringing, they yell louder. Our stadium is louder since we got the new cowbell rule. It makes our fans focus oncheering instead of just ringing a bell. If you decide to be a douche-bag jackass and defy the rules, the bells will get banned again. If the bells get banned again, there will be a punishment for ringing them atSEC games. It also costs our program money. We have the smallest budget in the conference.Do you really wanna pay 50 k a pop for not obeying the rules the rest of the year. Add that up. Do you want your athletic department paying that much moneybecause you act like a little kid? We're already gonna get fined for the LSU game. Let's stop right there. It blows my mindthat peoplecan't obey sucha simple 17in rule. Don't get me wrong, Inever missed an opportunity to sneak my bell in when they were illegal, but things change just like our athletic department, fans, and expectations change. Gotta change with the times. If we didn't, we would still be stuck inTempleton-like conditions. Get your head outta your ***, home boy.PosterFormerlyKnownAsRFAA said:

then you really don't need to comment on how well we did. There was no problem at the LSU game, at all. Within my visual range there were only 5 or 6 douchebags who can't seem to understand the rule. Unfortunately one of them sits next to us.
Oh, and on how to handle it, do what we are doing. Work with the people in your area and call the Athletic Department. If a few people call on the same person they will remove them. I'm sure he will still get tickets but it won't be around us anymore.
