Changes at Home Games I'd love to see
I really really hate the home game experience now.
And I'm not even talking about the Gestapo, or the no peanuts.
The Whole experience is beyond lame and i'm embarrassed by it all. I could only imagine what other teams fans think when they come into the most beautiful stadium - only to see the fans intellegence get insulted for a full 3hrs.
Lets break it down.
When I was down in Calgary for LD, I did not notice a tight scheldule to run events... perhaps its cuz i dont go to more than 1 game a year there... It just felt like a normal experience and not one thats run on a train schedule.
Yes I heard their PA annoucer say Make some Noise for your D, or lets step it up , or make it louder ( something like that ) over the PA system. And thats all fine. But can someone tell me if another team has a PA announcer AND a on field announcer????
Chris Sheetz has to ****ing go. He and the train schedule of events insult our intelligence as fans. I'd rather listen to Bryan Hall than him any day. What is with the telling of us what to do every time? Is this because the majority of fans are of the older rotting set and they need reminding of what to do outside of talking about how little johnny is doing in college?
Scrap the Wave, or just scrap the shedule of it.. if it happens on a whim good.. but stop having it on a shedule..
No More green and gold chanting back and forth
No more go Esks go back and forth
No more "we want the ball back" By far the most stupidest thing ever, and I bet he thinks he is a genius for thinking of it.
Basically I"m saying scrap everything he leads into the crowd to do. It should happen on a whim and we shouldn't be told what to do. I'm fine with the mascots with their little cue cards trying to get the fans to go go esks go, or d fence... but no more Sheetz...the only thing that should be on a shedule is the fight song and the 50-50. End of freaking story.
The PA announcer just u say lets make some noise or the like that was good..
I dont know why the Esks thought we needed Sheetz on the field to tell us what and when to do things... it makes the whole experience feel lame, false and planned...Let things happen naturally.. or if you want to time those things - just dont have him announce the ****ing event...
"ok guys, time to chant Green and Gold now, Ok guys time to do the wave"
The Contests fine.. i know those have to be on a shedule and thats ok.. i'm just talking about the crowd interaction...He shouldn't be leading anything to do with crowd interaction, he completely ruins the game experience and just makes it feel fake...
