    Not in the sense that they sing constantly during the game, but it'd be nice if there was more crowd chanting/cheering songs (so to speak).

    Would that work in NBA crowds?

    I think it COULD, but some of the reason why it works at soccer/football games is there is a lot of lag time in the game. There's stretches of play where you can not really pay too much attention to the game.

    Speaking of lots of lag time, this board needs to sing a lot for the next year.

    Sorry man but it's in the works. There is just too much lag time in war. In war mothufuckas should be blowing shit up 24/7 or it's just too boring.

    and here i was hoping the lockout would make most of the 314 idiots move on to something else, not enhance their drunken, rude, annoying racket.

    I think the chanting is a cultural thing. They do it all the time in Euro Basketball. The Army and American fans grew up watching the Euro soccer fans chant and thus they do.

    Soccer is an entirely different world. I don't think there could be much carry over from soccer to basketball.

    A) The rich fuddie duddies in the lower bowl would never do it.

    B) I feel like the real fans in the upper bowl are too far away from the action for the singing to be effective.

    I have rep remarks to the opposite, so basically you are telling the majority of the forum they aren't funny. Maybe stuff I say just goes over your head?
