Stadium Decorum from Dak

This story reminded me of a post from early in the football season about how MF tries to get the Apogee crowd quiet when we have the ball.  It was something about when he motions his arms, he's not flapping like and eagle but trying to get fans to settle down.  Too funny!

So true.  Next season we need to have a scoreboard message about quieting down when the offense has the ball.

One problem the Cowboys have is that AT&T usually contains a very large portion of the opponents fans.   And, while those fans might be a minority, they are usually loud.   As long as there are a large group of opponents fans at AT&T, there is going to be noise when you have the ball.   

Of course, this is not a problem at North Texas.  It is our fans yelling when we have the ball.

I agree...maybe put some crowd "do's & dont's" on the Apogee scoreboard before the game begins and during halftime.  Since the fan base is growing, and there will probably be more people attending in 2019.  So, it's probably a good idea to remind folks who are newer to the game of how to act.

One of the most frustrating things about attending UNT football games:

Our fans screaming their lungs out when we go for it on 4th down.

Shut the F*** Up. It's not that hard

100% on board with a “quiet while we are on offense” message on the Jumbotron. It get ridiculous at times

It would be nice if there weren't cheerleaders egging the fans on.

This is the best idea. They have the videos for 3rd down (when on defense), so it seems they could easily do this. Send in the request!

PA announcement after 2nd down on offense: "Mean Green fans, it's 3rd down so please go to the restroom or concessions - thank you for your support!"

Then nowhere to be heard on big upcoming defensive plays (looking specifically at student section).
