Re: Music / Noise "Restrictions"

Ah, yes. It was actually we - Team 217, back when we were the Macomb Knights - that got Air Horns banned back in 1999. That was because in Ypsilanti we brought about a dozen and laid them on every time we won a match ^_^. Good times. Very annoying when other teams caught on though ;-)

On the subject of whether the rule will stick, I predict that many teams will get away with noisemakers (shakers, MOEsticks, etc.) anyways, just because it's such a big part of the competitions. I do agree that the drum corps, the boombox-carts, and the like have to go, though.
