Jeff Van Gundy just said the funniest and truest thing I've heard in a long time....
"Thunder Sticks could be one of the worst inventions in modern arena history."

He's right!!!!
Got any others?
Certainly a case can be made for 'White Noise' where everyone is wearing the free white tee-shirt the arena put on every seat before game time.

For Celtics games, they give away green t-shirts to everyone. It's pretty dumb.
But thunder sticks really are the worst thing ever.

What are your thoughts on a Tee-shirt gun?

As long as it keeps killing unwanted Simpsons characters, I'm ok with it.

I remember the time Isaiah Thomas held Tummy Sticks Night. That got pretty old by the 2nd half.

I blame the Angels for bringing them to the US. Fuck them and thier rally monkey.
I was hungover at a Wizards game a couple of years ago. Behind me was a 5 year old kid who father must have loaded him up with sugar as he was incessantly beating those things right behind my booze-soaked head. I wanted to grab those sticks and beat the kid to death with them.
Why not just pass out air horns if you want to make noise? Ban those fucking things.

Didn't the Devil Rays give out cow bells a couple of years ago?

They still do.....Once a year they have cow-bell day. The whole game is one big SNL, "I need more Cow-bell" joke whereupon they play that Christopher Walken bit between every inning. The only cool part about it is that they play the entire Mountain and Blue Oyster Cult discography's over the PA.
That being said, the joke loses its luster after the 2nd inning.

I always use thunder sticks.
I get so crazy I end up hitting the patrons in front of me.
They turn around all pissed; I look at them, give them a nod and say "what"!? Like an ass.
Then I go back to the game.
Viva la thundersticks!
