Thundersticks suck.

Give me the towel

I think the sticks make more noise for those who aren't loud af. 

Horns or good bells would be cool too. The bells from the 19 bjb weren't great. 

The towels are cool as a take home though. No matter what it'll still be louder than the old barn despite the people back then with home made noise makers. Paint cans filled with nails. My kid will never believe me about the stuff that went down in the house that Jack built.

If only they'd give out cowbells. I have a tiny team-branded cowbell... just beat to hell at this point, but it makes all the noise I need and I can still hold my beer (or leave my gloves on as the situation dictates)

But they'll never give them out when they sell for over $20 a piece... how many procedure calls could $600,000ish buy I wonder

Go to Princess Auto. Not sure if they still have, but I bought a real cowbell from there for like $15 a few years ago, loud AF. Little old lady in front of me tried to grab it away from me first game of the year, and i haven't seen her since.

That’s where we got ours. I’ve peeled more paint off the railing by my seat by banging that thing than I care to mention.

I don't need the noise maker. We will be standing and yelling in our section all game. We have a great group around us.

I know you all love them but I hate the cowbells TBH

I can't yell, it kills my voice. I would be done by the end of the first quarter. The bells are much louder. I hate the vuvuzelas.

Yes it's the vuvuzelas that get to me. I've seen a bugle up in the east nosebleeds, that's my kind of horn

I agree,hate those horns with a passion. We were at the BC game and a guy was belting it out on one of those horns,guy behind him was getting spit thrown at him when the guy with the horn would swing it around.

The Bomber Store is only listing the mini "cheering" bells: https://www.thebomberstore.com/mini-bell.html  (bell for ants)
I wonder if they have the bigger ones in store? 

Sportchek has this guy: https://www.sportchek.ca/categories/kids/sports-activities/hockey/hockey-accessories/product/cheering-stuff-cow-bell-blue-330725993.html#
There's a red one too but who likes red? 

Amazon has these: https://www.amazon.ca/Cowbell-Cheering-Percussion-Musical-Instruments/dp/B09GFM3CMH/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=cheering+bells&qid=1637095526&sr=8-5
Amazon has others, as well, but the timing is dodgy for delivery. 

Princess Auto has some cowbells: https://www.princessauto.com/en/searchresults?Nr=product.active%3A1&Ntt=cheering bell*&Nty=1&No=0&Nrpp=50&Rdm=434&searchType=simple&type=search
Not the easiest to hold.

They usually have cowbells at all the merchandise stands around the stadium during the game. I got the big bull bell that the team sells its very efficient at making noise lol. I do believe I want to say in the last 10 years they did give those mini cowbells away one game.

Yes, that's true. I was just surprised that they didn't have any listed on the Bomber Store website. Earlier this year, they had the bigger ones on a one-game deal. 

 

I have my ten-year bell already but my son has been using the little one for many years. I was going to upgrade him to a big bell. ;)

The old stadium got even louder before they switched the lower stands from metal benches to seats.

For noise makers I too get my cowbells from Princess Auto. I also have a football horn that works great.

Something that has been missing of late though at Bomber games is a good chant.

I need you all to join in when I start my rum-aided HERE WE GO BOMBERS, HERE WE GO chant.
