Student Section

[Shoxxxx]

They didn't put out newspaper last game, hopefully they do this game

[ShockerPhi]

I know it usually takes a few games into the season to get them out. Might not be at this game either.

[shock]

Have the upper section exclusively do the confetti to keep it off the court

[RHshoxfan]

1. Fill up the freaking student section. The tickets are free (more or less). When you graduate and want your own you will understand the hurt that a couple of season tickets at even the lowest SASO level puts on your bank account.

2. Place attractive females, and non-obese and/or non-middle-aged males, in the first few rows. Really, I'm not kidding.

3. Stop being derogatory to the other teams during intros (or otherwise without good cause). It is not cool, and reflects unflattering on the entire WSU community. Clap sportingly and welcome them much in the same way the Romans cheered for the gladiators who were walking out unto certain death.

No one should ever do number 3. Booing an opposing team isn't disrespectful.. It's every sporting event ever.

We used sneak confetti into games, and I knew some who would take the toilet paper out of the restrooms. It would all go up when the Shockers scored their first basket. good times!

[pie n eye]

You can never get enough fart noises.

Not talking about in-game boos. The entire arena does that, and it's totally normal.

Not sure if there was sarcasm in #2 but if not...ignore...if you have the spirit and willingness to get crazy in the front row do it. This attractive females and only the pretty people posts I have seen is about as dumb as this board can get. You paid your money, you love your Shocks; get in line early and rush the student section to get the best seat. Those who have posted that you are in the middle of one of the greatest runs not only in Shocker history but 99% of all schools, and say "relish it" are correct! We may be this good in the next ten years, maybe not...but if it is in front of you, enjoy the moment now!

Me either. It's also normal to boo teams during intros. Ever gone to a raiders-Chiefs game? The raiders get booed as they come on the field... It's sports

Hey ShockerNet. I'm from the student section(I hold down the front row), but is there any thing you guys would like to see us do? Or do differently? Any input would be great. Go shox

1. Have lots of fun
2. Go crazy
3. Be loud
3. Be creative and organize cheers and stuff. Don't be afraid to try new stuff
4. It's ok to "borrow" what works at other schools
4. Enjoy a very special season by making every moment count
5. Do the 7 nation army "whooooa-ooooooh-ooh"
6. Signs are always fun and show an engaged student section
7. Be fanatical to the point of delirium
8. Make memories that you and your buddies can relive years from now when you get together

And again have FUN!

Ok, that I can agree with...or just sit up higher

[SHOCKvalue]

Oh, but you can agree with that.

Appearance-based - Nope, nope, nope.

Age-based - Sure, why not?

Probably not so much age based but the fact that they've been in the front row for literally 10 years now. At least that i can remember.

The Raiders get booed when the bus pulls into the parking lot. Seems I've heard someone held up a "Commitment to Excrement" sign at the Raider bus one time.

[pogo]

Lol do it. Anything goes in the student section. My favorite is the guy in the banana suit. Heard a story that he was seen in the WSU library one day sitting at a computer googling pictures of bananas. LOL

googling a banana is against the law in most southern states.
