Love this idea - let's get some excitement
- Thread starter dawgstudent
- Start date
He played at the upig basketball game. If the acoustics weren’t so woefully terrible in the Hump, it sounded like it was awesome.
He was the DJ that was inside the Hump for basketball. He's going to be inside DWS this season.
Was this the cat who was at the State-Southern Miss Exhibition game in Hattiesburg last year? If so, it was nothing but a racket.
Would that be The Nice List, The Naughty List, or This Dumba** is getting on my very last Nerve List? He has multiple!
It would be the latter. The concept is good in theory, but with all the other noise going on, it's a cluster17.
Whenever I go to a football game, I go to watch the football game.
Is that wrong?

Bye, loser. Take your buddy Goat with you
To recap:
We have posters pleading for a football player to get punished and also taking a principled stand against attending football games because there will be a DJ in attendance.
This has been a hell of a 24 hours for SixPack.

MSU has had an awesome atmosphere many times over the years (in a general sense, as in all year, not one specific game). In general the whole Kang Era, until the end. Croom killed it completely, then Mullen instantly brought it back in 2009. We had a few dips in there from time to time, and one of the notable dip years was 2012. Guess what we had playing right as the team was about to come out? Yep, a DJ.
I'm not going to more than one game anyway. A DJ isn't going to make me quit going to my annual game. But it's certainly not going to make me want to go to more. It's just a damn chore to sit there for 3-1/2-4 hours just to watch 60 minutes of football.
Worst fans in the country
Pat - what live sports do you enjoy in person? I'm really curious.
Soccer, tennis & baseball. I would enjoy football without the 3.75 minute time outs sandwiched around 5 minutes of actual football.
Hear me out... instead of paying for a gimmick to get fans in the stadium, we invest in the product on the field instead.
Winning cures a lot of problems.

I mean you aren’t wrong. I do miss the days of the games that weren’t televised and how the action kept moving. It was jarring on a prime time game and how the Red Hat Official guy came out and everyone groaned and sat down.
But thats just the “new” reality of all games being televised and the programs making an absolute killing. I don’t see where having an actual DJ playing during those breaks harms anything vs Johnny in the Athletic Department playing songs. The DJ isn’t increasing the breaks, just filling them with something that is meant to be exciting. I guess it comes down to arguing the merits of the two as song selectors.
Interesting to be against it at this point. Not like it’s going to matter this year tho since they haven’t fixed the sound system.
Over the years, no matter how HYPED I got, it did not transfer to the field.
So, ,,,,nothing wrong with enthusiasm, but.....
The team has to get things done.

Exactly. Wins will get me excited. Nothing else will.
Agree. The DJ is no worse that what we’ve had for years. Probably a little better. But it’s not going to get me to more games.
Exactly this. Even if you hate the pregame hype show, you still get up for that first series. DWS can be rockin' and the crowd all hyped up... buuuuuut when we get the ball and go 3 and out it's gone and in the ditch kaput.
We didn't do much of anything last year to get me really excited headed into this season. Yeah we got a new coach and all that fresh, shiny hope that goes with it. But if we get out there in three weeks and don't execute and struggle against lesser opponents, then I can watch that at home.
So yeah, a DJ is cool and all, but I hope our athletics dept recognizes that the best marketing is the product on the field.
Ok, don’t want to sound like old negative guy here - but I don’t like it. OM had a DJ at the egg bowl two years ago and I felt it honestly messed up the atmosphere. Every time he mixed things up and changed the beat, the crowd would die down. It’s be great for 30 seconds, then he’d switch up the rhythm and fans would get lost.
I know that sounds dumb but I swear - me just being an observer there, it kind of did the opposite of hyping people up.

Wow, haven't seen this side of Patdog before. I guess it's true, getting old makes you grumpy and grouchy. Walter Matthau is calling.....**

You know what gets the crowd going crazy?
Touch downs and pick sixes. And intercepting their QB and recovering their fumbles.
And winning.

I always liked having the band play, cheerleader mic man, and kicking the other teams tail for 4 quarters.
