Bring water bottle & pennies to games
This idea is from socalblue over at GBW. I think its worthy to be here as well.
The gist of the idea is to leave your car keys in your pocket. Bring an UNOPENED bottle of water into the stadium. Drink your water. Toss in change in the now empty bottle. Instant noise maker.
They seem to be gaining a decent amount of support for this and I thought it was a great idea. If you really like the idea and don't mind shelling out some water and change, bring extra water bottles and pennies to hand out at tailgates, etc.

Thanks though. I won't be bringing bottles or change. That's for pussies. Open your mouth, go with a sore throat.

bottles work best...

No. Until they outlawed it because of us, buying a 5 gallon jug from the hydration station, drinking it during the first half to ward off the heat/hangover, and then filling it with change worked best.

Ah, my bad. I read literally every diary and post and somehow managed to miss it. Sorry fellas.
I'm not saying to refrain from yelling.
Yelling = awesome
Pennies in a bottle = annoying
Yelling + Pennies in a bottle = Awesomely annoying for Notre Dame

If there are 110,000 people with noise makers at this game while I am hung over as piss I will probably hurl myself over the wall in an attempt to kill myself, forgetting that it is only about 2 stories I will just break my ankles and be really upset. Please do not do the noise makers, for the love of god... and my ankles.

This won't end well.
September 11th, 2009 at 10:45 AM ^
This sounds like a great idea! Can we do it for night games as well?

The bottles with pennies can also be used as a rhythm track for Sweet Caroline.

Here's the thing. Jangling metal objects (coins, keys, what have you) might make a little noise but it's not an intimidating sound. It's more like the sound one of those old radiators makes. If you want to actually intimidate the other team, use your voice.
