Noisemakers

Recommended Posts

I saw a guy at the Nederland game with a noisemaker that had ball bearings in it. It looked like a post driver that was sealed off with the bearings inside. Not sure if he posts on here but if so i am goig to try and make one this week. I used to have propane tanks with ball bearings but they dont allow those anymore. If anyone has any tips please post or pm me. I am mostly looking for tips on sealing off the open end. Wont have access to a welding machine though. Thanks

They used to use EMPTY freon cans, put ball bearings that you shoot in sling shots in 'em.  Seal the hole. 

Easier and less effort and loud -  is EMPTY Gatorade Bottles hand full of pennies.  You could try the ball bearings in the Gatorade bottles.  They might be just as effective.  Gatorade bottles are thicker than water bottles, water bottles work just not as loud.

Cow bells are good and loud, too.

Be NEDERLAND LOUD!!!!!!  Bring da noise and let's rattle their cage.  Tell everyone whose coming to the game Saturday.

The Dogs deserve our support!!!!

Go Bulldogs!!!!!!!

They would probably stop you at the gate if you had something big in your hand, but if you can get it in then they probably wouldnt do anything. I dont plan on making anything huge, and it would hide well in my coat. Of course you never know. Depends on whos working the gate. That guy walked right in with his last week so i guess it depends. Its not against UIL rules so i think its stupid to have a policy against it.

the UIL's only rule is that air horns can't be used in completely enclosed stadiums.  Certain schools however don't allow them, so all you have to do is ask the school.  We used our air horn in Texas Stadium in '05 and I have my own personal air horns that you can get at your local auto parts store that I blow everywhere I go.  Nobody has said anything yet.  You can get your own air horns for as little as $16.  You hook it up to a small 12v battery such as a 4-wheeler battery.

[/quote]  Dayton has a Train Horn when they score. The only schools around that dont let you have them CROSBY AND GOOSE CREEK.  GP does not care on noise makers i made some out of empty freon tanks ball bearings and took them there i make small one out of empty food cans with  ball bearings we had them this past weekend in G.P. UIL dont allow the small freon horns in the stands.  ;D

At our game last week (at GPISD stadium) they did make an announcement about no noise makers, but right after the guy announced it everybody in our section held up their noisemakers and shook them and continued to shake them throughout the game, nothing was said to any of them for it.....I say bring the noise makers and be NEDERLAND LOUD AND PROUD!!!!!!  Go Dogs!!!!!

Stadium filled with noise makers....I probably would leave the air horns, freon cans, or propane tanks at home.

Those can be safety issues.  Typically, when those announcements are made it involves airhorns.

Otherwise-  filled gatorade/water plastic type bottles filled with whatever should be fine.  Cowbells, too.  I would dare them to take a cowbell from someone I know - she's had it for years.  She might use it against them. 

Whatever, the other fan brought in last week was fine.  And it didn't sound small.

No UIL rules against noisemakers.  The only restriction UIL has is not in gyms or athletic field houses.

BE NEDERLAND LOUD!!!!!

There was several air horns against Stratford on Nederlands side and several of us had the take a deep breath and let her rip horns. I have also seen the aluminum water bottles with ball bearings but, make sure you tape the lid shut or you will be spraying bearings all over the place. I would like to see everyone bring a black or gold hand towel for rally rags. I know they gave some rally rags out last week but, not nearly enough and they were not used that much.

    • Heading into the summer and before two a days get going… what are some concerns or positives about your team heading into next season? I’d like to hear from some H-F people because according to some they are the district favorites heading into the season. I’m just trying to pass some time at least until we get our DCTF magazines lol For Bellville my concern is filling some holes on defense… specifically at LB,S, and DT… bright spots ? Basically the entire offensive line returns that paved the way for 3 RBs to rush for more than 1600 yards a  on the season (2 of those RBs will return as well). With all that said Bellville should still be a region favorite this upcoming season.
    • That’s not a choice, it’s the same thing and equally dangerous.    I’ve literally heard (with my own listening ears) the R County Chairman boast in a speech that “the only time I’ve ever voted for a Democrat was when I voted for Hillary in the Democrat primary! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!” You’ll never guess who is tweeting all over the place about how we need closed primaries this week.  Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.  Escalation of force.  These are concepts that you completely understand and teach.  Whatever we do today, we’ll pay for tomorrow. Impeach a President over something stupid? They’ll impeach yours twice.  Promise to lock up your political rival if you get elected? You can’t cry over somebody else doing it to you… even if you were just blowing a little smoke for the morons.   The old days of “don’t throw rocks if you live in glass houses” has now become “I’m pretty sure I’ve got more rocks than they do.” The frightening thing is that Ds only do it to Rs. Rs do it to Ds and other Rs alike without hesitation.  
    • Definitely does NOT sound like a fit for PN-G.
    • No offense, but both sides do it.  The Rs in Texas want to do away with decades of precedent and demand that Dems are no longer given chair positions on any committees in the Tx House. It sounds reasonable enough, until you arrive at a point when the Ds enjoy a single seat majority in the house, select the most leftist speaker of all times, and the refuse to give Rs any say in the legislative process by refusing to give them any committee chairs.     Experience has shown me that any time a party seeks to consolidate power in a legislative body, it backfires.    What I don’t like is a world where we cheer for Manchin for doing his own thing, but also re-elect guys like Paxton and Patrick when they make threats to R Legislators if they don’t do exactly what the Radical Right demands. Our Rep here in Hardin County lost his spot for voting against private school vouchers-his wife is a teacher. He also voted his conscience on the Paxton impeachment.  It cost him his seat…. Not because of the will of the voters in his district, but because if millions of outside dollars pumped into the race from outside the district and even an endorsement of his unknown challenger by Donald Trump himself.    Why do people like you applaud Manchin for being his own man and then vote against Phelan for doing the same thing?
