I may have a guy that can break a whistle. He does squeekers on dog toys too.

I sent the Athletic Department earlier this morning, a link to an article describing this jerk. And the trouble that he has caused the last couple years. The rest of the teams in the SEC hate him. He has been physically assaulted multiple times at games. Just what we need at Goss. I asked them pointedly what they were going to do to keep this guy in control. I don't want a repeat of what happened in Scottsdale last night.
I was mad enough to spit nails last night. I have never told another fan to F himself before, but I yelled that at him last night, from only a few feet away. After he repeatedly refused to tone it down.

I've never looked into the guy. Does he do it with a whistle or is that his natural ability? If it's a whistle, then it can easily be taken away as per OSU policy.
You can bet that "whistle" is not on the approved items list.
If it's his natural ability, wow. What dedication. But I have a hard time believing Goss will let it go on and on, especially playing the Beavs.

And I was going to delete my post. We can always break a finger or two. Pretty easy actually.

from an ESPN article about the a-hole in Omaha Kristyna Engdahl, director of communications for MECA, which manages TD Ameritrade Park, said that Franklin was approached after "an onslaught" of guest complaints both inside and outside the stadium. She also said there were a number of calls and emails from people unhappy with the whistler. Ballpark policy, Engdahl said, prohibits disruptive noisemaking of any kind.
www.espn.com/college-sports/baseball/cws/story/_/id/27012091/cws-quiets-vandy-whistler-amid-complaintsDoes Goss have such a rule? But then we’d have to kick out 1/3 of our crowd also.

From a "Fan Code of Conduct" page dated 2013 (for Football) I can't expect it to be different for 2022 or for Baseball. The trouble will be getting them to do something about it.

Are we gonna have to deal with this a-hole at Goss? Or does he only do Vandy home games? Anyone know? If he starts in, bring some laser pointers and aim them into his eyes until he shuts TFU. On second thought, that’s probably bad karma. Never mind.

What if we took advantage of the whistling, and yelled, "LET'S GO BEAVS" or "O-S-U"?

There was a situation kind of like this back when the Oregon state police were still working the games. A highly obnoxious fan had been asked several times by security to calm down, when he wouldn’t comply a 6ft 6in 260 lb officer went up to him and leaned in and said “ I’m going to talk to you outside and you can decide how you are going to get out there “ it got real quiet real fast.
