First down horn is a paid advertisement.

They should just play the fight song after every score. It was pretty cool on the ncaa football games.

Yes they do. After the fireworks and sirens. Sounds pretty cheesy especially while watching the highlights.

That's why I suggested they play a recording of the fight song fanfare that precedes yelling "Go Tigers Go!". Do that twice and get two crowd yells. Then the band can play the fight song if they are available.

What could be better than associating the best part of our unique fight song with every score?

It is a tradition that cannot be copied.

I could take or leave the siren. However, if anyone tries to touch the 1st down horn, then **** is going down.

It doesn't bother me. If we score a touchdown, they can play anything they want over the PA.

Would still like to see us “brand” the student section and come up with some unique cheers. Actually like the LSU Tiger Eye on their field. Maybe we play “welcome to the jungle” theme music and expand our vision of the Tiger theme.

WOW!

We have the most exciting football team in the world. They're setting the football world on fire. Somebody, call the MFD. Ok, they are on the way? Yeah... I hear them.

This is just redonkulous!

At least get a new siren. sometimes it sputters, fizzles and sounds hoarse...
Or maybe that's the sound system in relation to where my ears are.

It sounds like crap on TV. It sounds crappy at other schools too. Live it's fine. On TV it doesn't work.

I agree

It’s horrible.

Can you image Alabama having a siren?

RE: I’m sorry but it’s time to ditch the siren
Works for me whether at the stadium or on TV. Please no Tiger growls. Talk about being overdone and tired. We already have a real tiger. Now, more drums playing is always a great idea but since they play plenty before the game at Tiger Lane, that's where I get my fix.
