Another NFL dictated crowd rouser.

Gotcha. Man, that crap is irritating as heck on TV so I can't imagine how bad it is in the stadium. Why do they have to announce it - and so obnoxiously? Do they think we're stupid and don't know it's a 3rd down? 

That's how my mind thinks. I don't need (or want) to be told what's happening right in front of me and I certainly don't need to be force fed.

Everything has to be a circus these days. 

Youd be surprised at how many fans are not paying attention and do need to be made aware of third down and time to make some noise

It's actually kind of fun because it gets the crowd into it when the D needs to make a stop. However, like the "Party" button, it's completely inappropriate when we're hopelessly losing in the 4th quarter. The league has given teams a play sheet to follow without any conditions for an audible. The 'Fan Experience' people have a gameday script which must be obeyed.

End of third into 4th, Tropical Smoothie?(so bad I cant even remember which smoothie company) sponsored video needs to be axed and get someone that can actually produce something that can ramp up the energy

edit: Yes the party button, still not sure how that got the green light
