The current record is 6,768.

My question is, how do they not already have this record?
My guess? Once the numbers get into triple digits, most State fans start getting a headache.

I'd probably wear some earplugs if I had to venture to cowbell land.

triple digits. I get a headache if one is right next to me. I think I have used my cowbell one time at 2010 beat down of Michigan in the Gator Bowl.

I have to think that people would have splitting headaches from clanking them all game.

It's obnoxiuos af, but they are in Starksville too, so cringe is the way of life.

I honestly don't understand why State would do this. It is just a matter of time before it is no longer allowed. Bringing attention to it and trying to have more or make it louder is only going to expediate a rule against it.

I’ve been to a few State games and the cowbells aren’t bad in the stadium, really. When they are rung in unison, it’s like loud white noise. Now, when you’re walking along and someone randomly starts clanging away, it’s startling and annoying.

+1 to this. It was annoying but not overly so back when Davis-Wade was just a large high school stadium, open at both ends. Now that it's partially enclosed and they've added several thousand additional seats, the noise is ear-splittingly loud.

The History and the Compromise

The Ban: The SEC banned all artificial noisemakers—including cowbells—at football and basketball games in 1974 to prevent unfair disruptions and maintain competitive fairness.

The Enforcement Struggle: Despite the ban, Mississippi State fans continued smuggling and ringing cowbells in Davis Wade Stadium, leading to ongoing tensions, confiscations, and warnings or potential penalties for the university.

The 2010 Compromise: The SEC voted to amend the ban, creating a regulated exception (known as the "cowbell compromise") that officially legalized the traditional instruments under strict operational guidelines.





Oh so... not enough people go to the games at Starksville to make noise on their own. Now I see.
