Cell phone lights at game...BUT BETTER
Oct 20, 2015, 10:28 AM
|
|
For those of you who missed it, there was a really cool moment during the BC game where everyone lit up their cell phones as if they were lighters for an encore...
Now imagine if we had the screens from everybody's phone's pulsing orange and purple. For a big third down against FSU. I have been talking to my fellow students about it and they are on board from it.
The real question is if everybody from here would be willing to jump in too. Please let me know if y'all would do this or not, and if there's enough support I'll detail my ideas on how to make it work. It wouldn't cost a thing for anybody
Go Tigers!

I'll be there - I'm game, if you can get enough support.
A better idea even (IMO): Air Horns. If the cowbells are allowed, I say we up it a bit. We have two hands. An air horn in one hand, my 6+ strobing between purple and orange in the other.

Here's a link to a panoramic pic I took. I don't understand though - it looks great on my iPad, but here at work on my desktop computer, I can barely see the lights.
If it doesn't load correctly, let me know and I can email you a high res copy.

Something I just noticed when I got home and looked at that pic again.. Check it out - right on the field in front of me, there's a BC guy on the 50 taking a pic.
"Even BC had to take a peek", as Musberger would say.

Even better than airhorns would be AK47s.

It's a noted celebratory act worldwide, and I think it would gain attention for Clemson all over the world if all of us brought AK47s and fired them into the air after every big play.

I think it would be way to hard to coordinate with 85,000 people to get them to even get something with an orange or purple background on there phone.
Hopefully after last week we can get them to do just the phone thing again.
As others had said it looked to me like it started in south upper deck stands. I just hope it works again. It would be nice if we could do it every 3rd down.

Create a free app that flashes from orange to purple on the screen. Put something on the board about it before the game and during the game put something on the board saying to turn on the app and hold your phone up. Shouldn't be too hard.

The ACC should worry more about giving us better teams to beat so we don't have to worry about being left out of the playoffs than lights at a game.

It would not be nice if we could do it very 3rd down. You want to be like those fools up in VT that get their keys out? NO. Now sit down, shut up, stand up and yell and scream like you mean it.
Good grief. This is just like people not knowing why the FSU We Will Rock You thing was cool.

I plan on toughening up the woohoo by yelling, "Woo! Hoo! Woo MF'n Hoo!"
But seriously, wonder if someone could do the Orange/Purple flashing lights with a website and some JavaScript? Seems easy enough to do that way and you could preload the page before the game.

lighter at a rock show, but that is neither here nor there.
I've yet to see anything that said why anybody did this. So as far as I can tell, it was just a bunch of people going through a motion for apparently no reason. Trying to do it again, even if 100% participation would not as cool.

The time would vary slightly depending on the cell provider. It would have to connect to a third party server to get a specific time to coordinate across all networks.

I was surprised at how low the decibel meter read at BC. It seemed to be just as loud (or close) to the GT and ND games, yet the highest I saw was around 105. I wonder if they moved the mic/sensor...

Yea, we'll make a free app anybody can download and put flyers around all the tailgates before the game so people will know about it and how to do it. Or if someone doesn't want to download something just take a picture of your orange shirt and hold up. Just tell everyone you know whos going about it, we've got two weeks to spread the word. C'mon guys, we could do something pretty ### cool here that I don't thinks ever been done before

Orange and purple lights would be too dull. Wouldn't work as well as the regular light. I'd find the "Strobe light" app and get everyone on board for that!

on an already orange stadium.
Worth a shot, but not sure how effective it would be.
The LED lights were very bright and distracting in person, but they didn't look that impressive on camera.
Maybe something like this should be done when our offense is on the field to distract the other teams defense. That way we can continue to make noise while our defense is on the field.

I got in trouble for STANDING UP
Oct 20, 2015, 11:14 AM
|
|
during the game!!! This was in TDO. I had a woman tug on my coat to sit down, but I told her no. Then 2 rows behind her an older (in her 80's) told me to sit! I told her I wasn't going to sit, then her husband says "YOU WILL SIT DOWN!". I was defiant to him and said, no Sir, I'm not sitting. Then of course I catch all these snide remarks from behind me. It's not like I stand during the whole game, but the Tigers were about to score! I've felt bad since then, but what has Tiger Nation become?!?!
How in the he!! can you get people to realize that we are not at the movies!!!
I'm surprised that they didn't complain about the cell phone lights, so good luck with this one.
Go Tiger Faithful!

It is your seat, you paid for it. If you want to sit, sit, if not then do not. I almost saw a fight in my section about it the ND game, and thought it to be stupid. If you cannot stand, then stay on your couch in your house.

I've got an even crazier idea.
Oct 20, 2015, 11:15 AM
|

First, I'm going to go into the stadium and find my seat.
Then, I'm going to turn my cellphone completely OFF. That's right OFF. No selfies, no in-game tweets, no virtual lighters or strobe screens.
THEN (and this is where it gets wild), I'm going to WATCH THE GAME! Every freaking minute of it! If I really am feeling zany, I might yell or clap too!
Just an idea I've been kicking around---not sure if it will take off as it doesn't seem to be too popular.

do it when they play light 'em up. Get someone to build a Clemson crowd prompt app. That way it could be updated and changed to find what works best. Also my battery won't last in the stadium for all 3rd downs. Once during the game would be more impactful.

That would be awesome but realistically I don't believe there is enough time even though it would be a simple app to make you would have to code it for at least two mobile platforms (iOS, android) possibly windows mobile and get Apple to approve it for it to be available on the app market and then get everyone to download it but I hope I am wrong about this it would be awesome and if that happens someone should record it so those of us that can't make it would be able to see it
