More Sandstorm, less garbage at Cintas timeouts...

Postby MuskiePimp23 » Tue Feb 26, 2008 6:57 pm

From Dow's Blog:

"Dayton is a great place (to watch a basketball game). The Flyers are tied for 12th place in the A-10. But Sandstorm is playing at halftime, and this place is rocking."

This is the "guy" who has been dancing now for the last 3 years...Did not make it this year, but it was rocking the two years before that.

I know we have all these darn corporate sponsorships and such, but playing good music to get the fans riled up can make Cintas a LOT more intimidating. We seem to do that for big games, but other games...not so much. This video is also good for a laugh.

that was from last years game. In the end it was a lost the last two years for the dancing guy.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

I honestly don't see how that is entertaining at all. On the other hand, Dayton's arena is fucking LOUD! Jesus Christ...

Actually the YouTube video was from the game 3 years ago when Dedrick Finn was still a Senior and on the team as you can see Dedrick shooting layups...I was up there for that game, as well as the game last year...If you watched the game tape of this year, that same dancing guy was there this year as well...The dancing guy is a retard, but he does work the crowd into a frenzy at that place...The Gardens used to play better music and get the crowd pumped up...We get a run going and the crowd into it at Cintas and everybody stands up, then they play 15 commercials during the break and everybody is bored and sits down...That is a little overboard on Xaviers part. Cintas should be more intimidating than it is on a normal game basis and this is a suggestion to help make the place rock...We should be there in force on Saturday as the crowd against Duquesne was Pathetic, even though there was snow outside...

I agree with the Sandstorm.
I also like their description about the video "basket ball danceing guy dancing". Very descriptive.

I'm all for the geting Cintas more lively but that guy was pretty dumb. However, I can see how UD fans might think that that guy's the sh#t.
