Maximize Your Noise

I put this as a reply in the noisemaker thread, but I'm really passionate about this so I want to make my own thread. Here is the method that I believe will help maximize our home field advantage:

If you can whistle with your fingers, do that because the high pitch of the tone cuts through the air the best. Do that nonstop from the opposing team huddle to snap.

For those who can't whistle with your fingers (probably most of us), take your program, open it to the halfway point, then roll the edges inward to make a megaphone shape. The program isn't the best since the paper absorbs the sound more than an actual plastic megaphone, but it's the best compromise. Do this so that you can hold it in one hand. Bang the seat with the other hand, or kick with your foot.

Now the most important thing...find your natural tone...for men it's usually a little higher than your speaking voice and the opposite for women, usually a little lower. Use the word "hey" and build up your yell while maintaining the same tone with the program megaphone to your lips. So it's just a continual HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY all the way from the huddle to the snap. Don't scream. Yell.  Use this strategy to prolong your voice all game long and to produce the most consistently loud sound every single down we are on defense.

Clapping and screaming are much less effective...clapping is not amplified, and screaming cannot be maintained. The change in the aluminum can is less effective as well since they took away the caps and the bottles are so light (thanks chris long). Use your voice effectively and keep pounding the seats.

great post.  this stuff needs to passed along to all online panther outlets... social media, reddit, C-S-R (to whoever goes there), etc., and word of mouth to any fans you know going to the game

BOA needs to be straight ROCKING the entire time we're on defense.  we do that and we're liable to get palmer rattled and he turns into an average to below-average QB once that happens

Back in '13 the week before the Saints game I did quite a bit of research on how to be loud. I even watched videos of Chiefs and Seahawks fans in the stands. What stood out to me was the way they used their hands cupped around their mouth to amplify their voice and also the steady continuous tone from huddle to snap. The noise is so important...Cam was emphasizing it even in the last post-game presser.

Can you bring whistles into the stadium? Man...that would be so annoying...but loud. 

A two finger whistle can be so piercing...sadly I cannot seem to learn to do it; however I know there are fans who can and if they would maintain their whistle along with everyone else pounding and yelling it would be deafening.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
