OT: Shitty cowbell guy

Submitted by BakkerUSMC on
Anyone else have a shitty cowbell guy for their "Go Blue" chant? Section 37 has a guy that can't keep the beat to save his life. Several questions: -How did he get nominated to be our section's cowbell guy? Literally a trained monkey would've made a better choice, our selection committee may need some work. -How did he get a large cowbell into the stadium? Pretty sure I'm a little guy and still can't hide objects that large in my clothing without hiding it inside my body somewhere... -What imbecile taught him the beat?? It sounds more like a cow randomly having a seizure than an old man with season tickets for 20 years. I have no real solution or debate, just wondering about these big mysteries in life.

I know EXACTLY who the OP is referring to, he sits in approximately row 72, just a few seats away from section 37's entry tunnel. I'm a section over in 36 and a half-dozen rows higher, shitty cowbell guy is truly shitty. And lethargically slow. Every time he starts up, a much better cowbell guy in 35 starts up and usually finishes before Mr.Shitty.

He was a 4* cowbeller coming out of HS.  Hoke and staff did a terrible job of developing him.  I think Harbaugh can do his best to salvage something.

Great passion but poor technique and pad level.

there's a dude in that corner that doesn't play the ending sequence right (the 4th time through) -- he plays it the same as the other three.  He competes with a girl that does it right, so it's like a cowbell showdown most games.

Shitty cowbell guy is probably just a weekend cowbeller.

 

I'm betting he doesn't bother with upkeep in any way, he probably hasn't tuned the thing since he got it new, plus since cows are tone-deaf, he can't hit the right notes anyway, even if it WAS in tune, and he has no good rhythm, which is why he's a beat off all the time (or he's reading that epic tweet from Kate Upton....that could cause it to happen too).

I am in section 39 so I'm pretty sure I know who you are talking about. I have to say it sounds fine in my section. I guess if you don't like it don't participate or bring your own. Honestly I wish we had more fans who did things like cowbell guy.

I'm with you -- cowbell, regardless of quality, good; more cowbell better.

In the past, our cowbell people had plenty of opportunity to get better at playing the cowbell' now they have to fight with The rock Muzak playing to get heard at all. No wonder they aren't very good -- lack of game time experience. I'm in Section 42 and can see the guy in 37 playing the cowbell but can rarely hear him. We in section 42 had a family provide excellent cowbell players, but they grew up and moved on; we still miss them, and no one has stepped up into the void left by them due to the canned Muzak being played.

To reiterate, cowbell good --> more cowbell better. One cannot have too much cowbell.
