Put some tape around the little dinger and swing to your heart's content. Perhaps the worst thing in all of sports are those who choose to wield the "cow bell".

You are exactly right. The Gold Rush Club was a scholarship fund club I believe in the 70s. I have some old programs mentioning it. PM me if you want more info—I don’t want to bore everybody

70s and 80s support club for WSU athletics. Cowbells were a bigger deal at football games (man, I miss it) than at basketball games. SASO sort of took over and became the bigger deal.

I kind of thought somethin along those lines. I was born in 1964, but do remember goin to FB games with my pops, and believe I heard the bells
It's really kind of a cute little bell ,, will go along with my other Shocker stuff in the man cave. Thanks for the feedback
