PrintHave you not noticed how we haven't gotten any this season? Have you not noticed that us Clipper fans need something to cheer with? Have you not noticed that we need to get louder at Staples? Have you not noticed that Clipper Darell is losing his voice and needs our support as well? HAVE YOU NOT NOTICED THAT WE NEED THUNDER STICKS SO THAT WE CAN DISTRACT WHOEVER THAT'S SHOOTING A FREETHROW?(including our own team?!)
Sterling, open your wallet and buy us the Thunder Sticks and I'm sure we'll be a better team. At least just open up your wallet for a T-shirt shooting gun so that us fans can get some free t-shirts in the 300 sections...
Clips fans, what are your thoughts?

Agree
The last couple games I’ve been to I’ve wondered why we don’t have any. I know the Lakers have them, and I remember thunder sticks used to be huge noisemakers a few years ago.
Yeah I noticed that they weren't giving them out
they really help the fans get in the game and I can’t imagine why they would get rid of them.
In Gordon we trust
Sponsorship
Usually the thunder sticks are sponsored by a company. They must not have a sponsor this season.

I think LA$LIVE banned them because they were FREE.

Best thing about this season: EJ and no thunder sticks
I have moved seats because of thunder seats. Nothing, not even Ricky Davis, ruins one’s enjoyment more at a game than having some kid behind you pounding those things in your ears. How about cheering and clapping or even better a new coach.
YES
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES.
Wait, let me tell you how I really feel ..
YES.
Thundersticks are annoying. Let’s get people cheering instead. Last year I always had some kid around me that would distract the game thinking it’s a game. It’s bad enough I have to watch my mouth at the games .. then I had to deal with some kid eating his chicken nuggets and clapping those things at the wrong times.

Didn't realize there were so many grumpy Clippers fans
And not as a result of MDsr

we're grumpy
because sometimes you wish there’s something else to do besides watching your team suck.
Thunder Sticks can help solve that problem. XD
Clippers 09-10. Prepare for a revolution.
I'd rather be surrounded by thunder sticks than laker fans.

Seriously, I've had Clipper/Laker tickets for years and almost always give them
away. I’ve got tickets for the game on the 6th. Unless Griffin’s playing I’m getting rid of those too.
If BG plays you may be able to get some $ for them.

I'll take them East Richie!!

Just so you know, I've got a good friend who's a Laker fan and I always offer them to
him. If he can’t make it I’ll let you know.
They've Made A Lot of Cuts
No Thunder Sticks, some games no Brad, Tracey or DJ Dense, some games no Fan Patrol, only do the half court shot once in a blue moon (and then for airline tickets, not a car – probably because Dodge went BK). No fan event like Knotts Berry Farm or Universal Studios. Read somewhere the other day their attendance is down 20% and with the lousy economy a lot of corporate sponsorships have hit the highway.

On The Other Hand...
DTS continues to spend money on daily advertisements congratulating himself ((I think he’s the one running the ads, since they all seem to feature the same 20 year old photo of him and have similar graphics). If it wasn’t for DTS, the LA Times might fold. Did you know there’s actually a foundation trying to stop DTS from running these ads? See http://www.quixo.com/donald_t_sterling_graphic_design_foundation.html. Maybe he could cancel one ad a week and use the savings to pay for the Thunder Sticks, or maybe he could put his picture on the Thunder Sticks and kill two birds with one stone.
Tracey is a former Clipper Spirit who serves as an Arena Hostess, sometimes alone and sometimes with Brad Jay, who is the other Arena Host. Yes, she’s the blond with the microphone.

Wow I forgot about No Brad
If anyone can show that MDSR is responsible for eliminating DJ Denese, the South Park racing, , Brad, and Thundersticks I will take back all of my fire MD chants and agree that he should fill out his contract. Bring back Fred Jones and the KFC Original vs Extra crispy challenge.
I always thought Brad was lame. Tracey was cool, but she has no voice. Are they
really doing the half court shot for airline tickets? It’s hardly worth the embarassment of missing the hoop by twenty feet (most of them do). The DJ’s gone too? I’ve got half season tickets but almost all of my games are after Jan. 6th. so I didn’t know any of this.
I thought the reason they weren’t discounting season tickets last year was because they had so many renewals, plus Griffin sent new STH through the roof. Well, that’s at least what my rep. told me.
TRACY IS HORRIBLE..BRAD ROCKS
TRACY looks like she’s forcing her smile..at least brad has the ability to get the crowds going by being genuine…i actually believe he cares about the games…
Tracy and Brad??
Who??
