I've heard my bear friends talk about this.

Supposedly their plan is to bring cowbells and as they put it "ring irresponsibly", hoping to get penalties called on us and ultimately convince the SEC to ban the bells. I've seen several posts on social media asking where to buy a bell.

To get even, we should all bring in whiskey, get shitfaced and fist fight with our own security.

The Auburn folks tried that last year, did not work for 2 obvious reasons:

#1. Have you ever heard of throwing Brer Rabbit in the Briar Patch? Not gonna throw us off our game by doing something that we are VERY comfortable with and even famous for having.

#2. Non MSU fans have ZERO idea how to ring a cowbell and how to cope with cowbell related health issues. You must change up the ringing of your bell, some with a flick of the wrist, some with your elbow bend, some with your shoulder---if you only ring with your wrist you will be in too much pain to ring after halftime. You must endure cowbell ringing blisters, non MSU fans usually stop when their "hand starts hurtin". But most true MSU fans has thick calluses on their "cowbell hand" so blisters are not a big issue for us. I have been a MSU cowbell ringer for 25 years and I still need 2 extra strength Tylenol before the game or I will get a headache by the 4th quarter. Also ringing right handed for so many years has given me slight tinnitus in my right ear so I have to sleep with a fan on in the bedroom even in the Winter cold.

They had the same plan the year before last and I think '11, too.

Just confiscate their cowbells when they walk through the gate, much like they do our fans at their stadium.

I thought it was:
@Trip7ERA: Sneak up behind Bulldogs and cheap-shot them like a bunch of al-Queda terrorists.

rebal men everywhere are look forward to "smuggling" them in. #RingerInTheStinker


auburn did a commendable job at bringing in the bells, but even a few hundred can barely be heard and they MIGHT have had a hundred or so.

Ha - so I'm not the only one that takes tylenol before the game to offset cowbell induced headaches.

And those blisters are for real if you don't have an aftermarket grip. Newbies would be bleeding by 3rd quarter with a brand new off the shelf bell.

I think these are marketing ploys by the retailers to expand their markets and increase sales. Hopefully MSU alumni are benefitting from other fanbases buying up bells.

I don't think there's too much to worry about. Most of their wrists are too limp to ring a cowbell anyway !

Not the first time they've done this. Someone on here posted they found one and kept it after the 13 Egg Bowl.

They probably have a limited number of cowbells from previous confiscations in Oxford that Bear Security could hand out. Why would they want to spend $25 on a new one for one name when that would buy a couple fifths of cheap whisky?

If anybody listens to anything Elston says to do, and then does it, they have more mental problems than their problem of trying to learn how to ring a cowbell correctly.

Obviously cowbells are living rent free in his head. Hopefully he'll have nightmares about the joyous sound of 60k ringing bells for the rest of his life after tonight.
