I think it's more precausionary, and solid level-headed fans knew that this was coming based on the game itself. They also know that we are very fortunate that the other SEC schools even allowed us to have this privilege.

I think this is the most forward and direct I have ever heard him speak/write. Normally he is all cheery and positive. But that blog post from him had to be done to ensure that we get to keep the cowbells.

I didn't say anything last weekend, but I for sure plan to let someone know around me that they need to cut the shite with the bell and just yell.

FWIW I thought we were pretty good in the second half.

I think what we are dealing with here is a generational discord among fans. The older ones, like myself, sneaked them in to DWS and pretty much rang when we wanted and no one cared. I graduated in 93 from State and I never went to a game while I was in school that it wasn't hid under layers of clothes. The whole notion of walking past security with it in my bare hand is still odd to this day. Now that doesn't change the rules today and I do agree the university is under a microscope with the NCAA so we need to follow the rules. But part of me also goes back to the old "frick the SEC" mentality that says if we continue to win they will take them away anyway because Gus is going to have to have some excuse to tell Bobby Lowder when they don't win this Saturday regardless of weather the rules are followed or not.
