Crowd gimmickry or whatever 15:12 - Oct 17 with 4080 views | judd | Having read with interest various* proposals for generating atmosphere at games, I were wondering what crowd and/or club generated snippets of entertainment really gets on your tits/manboobs? 1. Mexican waves 2. Song snippets after a goal 3. Announcing MoM with only 85 minutes gone 4. Inflatables 5. Vuvuzelas 6. Jumping up and down aliens on cheapshit scoreboards 7. Mascots (i.e. Desmond/Spotty sort, not the young fan sort) 8. Brass bands 9. Yorkshire-accented announcers 10. Father fookin' Christmas outfits in team colours 11. Error-strewn matchday programs. | |

Top man Lama! Get the Sky Strikers back just like in the old days when Sky Sports coverage was good. You'd smash it. | |

Crowd gimmickry or whatever on 19:41 - Oct 17 with 1912 views | BigDaveMyCock | I went to the City v United League Cup semi-final in 2009(ish?) at the Etihad. Just before the kick-off they turned all the lights off in the stadium and shone a massive blue moon image upon one of the stands with pumping music. I'm not usually one for gimmicks, the most annoying of which Judd has done a good job listing, but I must admit to being very impressed by this. There was an electric blue glow over all the fans and, at same time, some United fans lit red flares, which, by sheer accident, looked great in the blue glow. Anyway, it just got everybody rossed up that little bit more for the game. That's what petro-chemical dollars buy you I suppose. | |

Crowd gimmickry or whatever on 23:30 - Oct 17 with 1755 views | BeefCurtain | Perrenial moaners and boo-boys are perhaps the most grinding thing about a match day. Oh and someone/a group on your row who repeatedly get up every 10 minutes for no apparent reason (obviously only applies to seating hence why Sandy is now my place of preference). | |
