Tatum_DirtyBird Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 57 minutes ago, H3llR4z0r said: I remember the very first time I ever hear a train horn in a high school football game, and it was an authentic one. Not one of those pretty chrome horns everyone has now. This was the real deal, and he hung it over the fence on the Marlin Bulldogs side in 2003 at Tyler Rose Stadium when Atlanta played them for the state championship. That horn sounded off twice, once at the beginning of the game, and once to start the second half, never again. This seems to happen a lot when we play Tatum as well. Huh? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only people you will find complaining about something as trivial as an air horn at the game is the losing team's fanbase. When your team is winning and scoring at will, you seem to not even recall a train horn. I guess, I'd have my lip stuck out and complaining about the train horn if we were getting our butts handed to us week in and week out, too. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the last democrat who wasn’t a whiny-butt snowflake died last year. This is refreshing! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to skip that game. We heard it a lot every time we played them. Gets old when you're with the team that's losing the game, but if the shoe was on the other foot....... Like the others have said, if you don't like it keep them out of the end zone. If the cannon/horn/etc. is being used in a sportsmanlike manner, I'm OK with it. If not, penalty time. After all, the guys operating it are representing the school whether they like it or not. Hate to admit it, but I actually appreciate the originality of the cannon vs. a horn. Something different.

Haven't lost a lot of games in Carthage the last few years, so I guess that ain't it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the Arp fan were mad because the horn kept going off. I stated if you don't want to hear the horn shut them down. Well I can still hear that horn. XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO Spud Yep. The best way to stop the train horn is to have a good defense. But, on that note...I do not like them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late. They might check out places like the city of Arp. Do the people who hang out downtown Arp, have more hearing aids than those that don't. How about Arp's homie does he have Hearing aids or ask you to repeat? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H3llR4z0r Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I can't knock any of it. I mean, I hear all the time how much visitors can't stand the "R-R-R-R-R-R-R-RRRRRAAAAAAAABBBBBBIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTSSSSSS" that our announcer says whenever they enter the field, score, or sometimes get a first down. Something I've been listening to for 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
