What happened to the shakers at UT games?

[northknoxvol]

I was cleaning out my garage and found some orange and white shakers I had taken to games over the years....I remember the whole crowd used to shake them to Rocky Top and various chants.

Per a thread here a couple of weeks ago (I think), shakers are effeminate. :thumbsup:

good question. It does look impressive on TV when the entire crowd has them

 

[SkidsisVFL]

They were EVERYWHERE vs UGA-ly, it seemed

 

[Special Ed]

Just be happy no one's brought a vuvuzela to the stadium.

Cool thread. I like the foam #1 finger. And the ice cream baseball helmets are cool too.

Religious persecution imo.

Religious persecution imo.

Looks like they're all trying to do the "Thriller" dance. Lol.

They are tribal and primitive. They are just a hassle to me.

This. Very much this. It's a visually impressive thing to see at games, and on the TV.

I bet there's a 100 foot shaker tree somewhere near Bucksnort, TN.

Shakers are practically extinct due to their celibacy lifestyle.

Student section was waving them like mad during the Georgia game.

I've never used them, except to decorate the car while driving to games.

They do look good when the entire stadium is using them, making noise at the same time.

Dub stepping.

I personally like them, and like when the many in the crowd has them. It's cool to look across or to the side and see tons of the orange. Looks like the "sea of Orange" since it moves

Everyone found out they're not called shakers, they're called pom poms and only cheerleaders use pom poms.

 

[VolStudent247]

Just taking a stab here, but dudes finally realized that walking around with a shaker is kinda gay.

 

[TNREADER]

Same as response to band thread.....paying too many former coaches, no money left for shakers.

 

[Orange And Garnet]

This looks good
Any crowd looks better with all the same color on also. Check out penn state this past weekend
