A state fan. A group that fills a stadium with cowbells that are technically already banned.


I will gladly take a stadium full of cowbells over the whistler(s)...and I aint even kidding a little bit.

If enough fans complained, quit buying tickets, and refused to support the program because of him. If the "Whistler" buys his tickets and causes no other problems could this happen?


I hope they embrace it and expand it to other sports. Giving out whistles with every ticket next football season. It's the new vuvuzela!

I can’t wait until someone punches the guy in the face. You know it’s going to happen. I suspect the gofundme page to pay the puncher’s legal fees will be supported handsomely.

He said he'd stop if Corbin asked him to.

Just get Corbin to ask him to.
Easy remedy.

Yep, this was confusing me, as they obviously do like the whistler.

Say that MSU had 1 fan who insisted on ringing his cowbell at every game. Why would anyone believe that MSU fans , as a whole, had a problem with the guy?

Some Vandy fans can claim to not like it, but the guy has been doing this for years now. They obviously don't have a problem with it and tacitly embrace it.

Does anyone else remember the whistler(s) being even more annoying and whistling randomly instead of tweet tweet tweet? I swear I remember it being random and not rhythmic.

There are 2.

1 guy is random and is somewhat bearable.

Guy 2 does the 3 whistles...constantly...no reason other than he has a captive audience.

I mean your entire fan base brings annoying arse cowbells to home football games so...


Do MSU fans bring them in your stadium? And tell your game day staff to FO when approached about them?

Do MSU fans ring them when the center gets on the ball or during play?

Do MSU fans ring them at baseball games at home? Away?
