Back in the early 80's, a bunch of drunken fraternity brothers formed a group called the Mean Green Dunk Club. They sat in the front row and whenever Ken Lyons, Delonte Taylor, David Vasher, ect. got a dunk, they spelled out VAVOOM with cards. V-A-V-O-O-M- VAVOOM! The reference being to a little known character in the old Felix the Cat cartoons. Vavoom was a little guy who yelled out "Vavoom"! and it made buildings, mountains, ect. crumble. You can youtube Vavoom to see him. They didn't have as many prolific dunkers as this year's group will have. I always thought it was very unique. Something I have never seen at any other game. I think this would be cool and a great tradition to bring back with this year's squad. We will be getting some national attention this season and it would be cool to have something that we don't have to copy from another school. Hopefully some new college students will take this challenge and bring back the Mean Green Dunk Club for the old guys that supported North Texas basketball back in the day! Go Mean Green!

I have season tickets on the other side but I try to stand a lot of the game. Normally I get asked to sit down haha. Maybe they can do something more modern. A phrase from NBA jam back in the mid 90s. They announcer always had crazy things to say.

I say they allow me walk around with a PA mic on the sideline. I'll yell out "Ohhhh Babbyy!!" or their nicknames (which I'll choose) when they dunk.

Im thinking I'll call Tony "Black Dynamite", Jordan "747" and CJ "The Assassin"

I personally liked the green wigs with crazy hair and green/white stripe dr seuss cat-in-the-hat hats during my time in the pit crew.

Getting more than 4,000 people in the building would be a good goal before reviving a pseudo-catch phrase from Felix the Cat.

You don't say much my friend, but when you do it's to the point, and I salute you for it.

VaVoom is an amazing idea. I would like the Zombie Nation thing changed out for Gangnam Style. High energy, related dance, and current enough for those on the wings to join in.
