What a great mbb thread. Olds yelling at clouds, method/bobinator spats, Reed entertainment discussions, rules/refs debates, and snarky comments. A little bit of everything.

You're welcome

Some have already touched on this, but the DJ is way too loud. We were sitting in good seats about 15-20 rows up from center court, and those speakers are blaring right at you to the point of inflicting pain. It's crazy.

Before I'm branded as an old (I am), I live for going nuts at games. I love the addition of the DJ. Just need to dial it back on the volume so my ears aren't bleeding by the end of the first half.

Totally agree.. We sit right below Monaco's new radio box location and it's ear splitting. Feels like the speakers are pointed directly at us. I bring noise cancelling earbuds now just to make it bearable.

Sorry to hear that.

Yall let me know when games have Golden from KPop Demon Hunters

I love the DJ. I love the music. I love feeling the bass rattle the back of my seat.

Reed was a damned theater before he showed up. He's great!

I'm okay with whatever volume doesn't upset the frisbee dogs

He was awful even on TV today and there is a 0% chance I go to a game at Reed with that **** going on. 0%.

Oh no. How will the Ags ever survive?

Man. I get that at there are a lot of simple minds out there that can't stand their own thoughts. I get it. I understand. Probably better than most. Having to deal with their own thoughts scares the hell out of them and they avoid having to think for themselves by having constant stimulation. It's a real problem in our youth but also effects some older people.

Good for you for needing it. We get it.

Worst thing today was trying to get a defense chant started. It's just not in our genes.

But we need the rowdies and yell leaders and whoever else to come together and figure some things out.

But the fire is catching, need to take advantage and build on it.

The 'defense' chant sucks. It just quotes crowds.

I was at an eastern conference final years ago in Indiana and they did that stupid 'defense' chant the entire time. Would have been much louder if they would have just let the crowd yell. That **** silenced them.

Dude,I'm probably older than you by 1, 2, or 3 decades. The amount of fun the DJ injects into the game is literally palpable. It pumps the crowd AND the players. And if threatening to never attend a game is your resolve, then so be it.

But with a winning team and a great DJ, Reed rocks.

---

Not threatening. Just not coming.

the DJ was over the top today. It I get that it stimulates you. Good for you.

there were 4000 empty seats today.

I know it's probably considered being an old now, but we've lost so many traditions that used to make basketball a lot of fun. I don't even remember what we did back in the day, but I remember having a ton more variety and engagement. Maybe the older rowdies can come back around and share some ideas with this generation…

Agree defense chant was horrible. The two sides of the student section were never in sync and sounded dumb.

Students aren't back. Glad you're not coming.

Enjoy your weekly break from your own brain. I couldn't imagine enjoying that.

I'll see them on the road where it's not as obnoxious. Be in Nashville. Much better.

There is someone in the AD that is doing everything they can to turn Kyle into Jerryworld and Reed into the AA Center. And we have a few old ags that think that ok.

Hopefully someone can get this crap under control.

Ask the Aggies is dumb.

The DJ dude needs to play the tunes and do his giveaway gig and nothing else.

SHOUTING DEFENSE is not his gig. BE QUIET.

I don't think the defense thing was his idea, but it's not working

It will only get worse unfortunately

None of this BS was his idea.

Won't be there, so don't worry about it.

My older brother hates the DJ, it was my first game this year I didn't mind him. The promoted De - Fence chant was bad, needs to be more organic or leave it to the AAAAAAA !!!
The stupidest thing today( by a mile IMO )was bringing the dance team out after a big play/ hype timeout with about 2 minutes left in the game for a combo number with the Hullabaloo band ?!?!?
WTF was that ?? The crowd is into it, noise level up and now we all sit down so some girls can dance to a crappy band number ( Dance with me or Come on let's dance I don't even want to remember ).

Please please never think that's a good idea and certainly never repeat it. Play some music or show a hype highlight video.

I like ask the aggies when I can understand them. It allows the crowd to get to know the team a bit.

How about some plain jane basketball knowledge and common sense?

Bring that huge bass drum back and have the band play and crowd sing, Wabash Cannonball!

Back when G. Rollie was coming apart at the seams.

Yeah, that ain't happening ever again!

They need to tune the audio or something a bit for sure, there was a "ding" during one of the videos that was so loud it almost caused a mass extinction event

Not a fan of his music but I'm an old so it really isn't about me and the kids like it. His defense chant attempts were weak and I didn't like how he seemed to interfere with the Yell Leaders. All that said there was an old next to me 30 years my senior having a great time!!

Agree on the "defense chant". Thats something done at NBA games. And we don't need it at Reed.
