any ideas for noisemakers we can get into the stadium?

[Chaos]

Throw fans of the opposing team down a flight of seats.  That'll make one hell of a racket on the way down.

My voice broke like a pre-pubescent teen way too many times while yelling last week.  I need to some vocal exercises prior to this week to avoid further embarrassment.

Support from your core, breathe from your diaphragm, and don't stretch your neck up. Look straight ahead with your eyes cast downward. 

 

Make believe you're a radio announcer.

After I lose my voice, Pre snap,  I always stand up and use my seat back or the one in front of me. 

 

I've gotten some awkward looks doing this..   So it only makes sense to do this from the very start.

If you can whistle with your fingers, do that because the high pitch of the tone cuts through the air the best. Do that nonstop from the opposing team huddle to snap.

For those who can't whistle with your fingers (probably most of us), take your program, open it to the halfway point, then roll the edges inward to make a megaphone shape. The program isn't the best since the paper absorbs the sound more than an actual plastic megaphone, but it's the best compromise. Do this so that you can hold it in one hand. Bang the seat with the other hand, or kick with your foot.

Now the most important thing...find your natural tone...for men it's usually a little higher than your speaking voice and the opposite for women, usually a little lower. Use the word "hey" and build up your yell while maintaining the same tone with the program megaphone to your lips. So it's just a continual HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY all the way from the huddle to the snap. Don't scream. Yell.  Use this strategy to prolong your voice all game long and to produce the most consistently loud sound every single down we are on defense.

Clapping and screaming are much less effective...clapping is not amplified, and screaming cannot be maintained. The change in the aluminum can is less effective as well since they took away the caps and the bottles are so light (thanks chris long). Use your voice effectively and keep pounding the seats.

Anyone have good form on this?  I was getting a bit tired in the 4th quarter.  So far I've realized it's best to let the seat finish swinging back out before I start pushing it back as there is less energy involved in doing so.  This being facing the field and hitting both of my neighbor's seat with right and left hands.  this is easily done while sitting ON your current seat while it is still in the folded position.  The other motion I tried using was the doggie paddle with both hands while facing my seat.  This had to be done with timing precision as my view was severely restricted since I'm in the end zone section.  Obviously no clothing towels or other sound dampeners should be anywhere near the seat.

I just do it with my own seat... kind of do a wrist flick so that it bangs the seat bottom into the top...  that way your arm doesn't get tired.

 

My right ear is still ringing from standing beside @lola at last years playoff game vs AZ.  True story.

It's taken years to master, but it's possible to stand on one leg while the other leg is banging your chair, your hands are clapping and you're screaming "DDDDD".  I have to relearn it every game on account of alcohol though.

All without spilling your beer!   I applaud you sir.

The panthers website has this on their prohibited list:

• Horns, bells, whistles and other noise makers.

 

Unfortunately, that sort of labels everything which sort of sucks.  If we could find something legal I'd be all in for buying it before Sunday.

 

Also, I can't get these damn bullet points to go away on mobile :(

This should be aminded for the playoffs. Why do you want your fans to make less noise. We should write them about this.

Actually this is pretty smart. Buy an aluminum can of beer at the game, chug it...empty lose change into it....wahlah....LOUD NOISES

Just be sure to bring a couple of pieces of duct tape with you to hold in the coins. First time I did it had a few fly and hit someone, felt like an ahole.

Just tell any kids you bring or see  to be quiet.   Noisemaker guaranteed.

Just wondering if there is anything we can get into the stadium to add to our noise.  I know we will all be yelling at max volume, and kicking our seats.  Any other ideas?

Got any kids...they make a lot of noise.

[AKPantherFan]

I'm no genious but I'm pretty sure that if folks just download some "noise" app and use that; x 70k ppl= double loudness

My voice still hasn't fully recovered from Sunday 

This....my voice is still shot too.  I can barely talk.

Wife thought it would make for a nice vacation  (not having to listen to me)....except now I just point and grunt at the things that I want her to get.
