meh. if it's played when the game is tense that's a problem
it's perfect for blow outs.
Sorry jonny, you're fake punting from your own endzone on this one.

Jonny Linehan speaks the truth: Popcorn Popping should never be played at a BYU sporting event

Huh?? We played it only when we were too far AHEAD to be caught.

You should tweet him and tell him how he is incredibly mistaken.

Oh, I will!

Still should never be played regardless of the score

That's exactly when you should play popcorn popping.

I don't recall it ever being played unless the game was well out of reach

They don't play it in the situation he described. They only play it in blow out

Maybe he got the Superman fanfare mixed up with Popcorn.

I'm totally fine with a "Hokie" doing a "Pokie" (phrasing?) or the Razorbacks doing a "Hog call".

…how can you say the player is wrong here? You enjoy it, but you don’t really affect the game

Well, since the scenario mentioned never happens as everyone who attends the game knows, he is, in fact, wrong.
kccougar
7/27/21 9:05pm
Do you think there has ever been a scenario, where BYU has needed a boost late in the game, and the band played Popcorn?
Alpi Gusto
7/27/21 9:37pm
No. Because that's not how it's done.

I don’t think most of these people have been to a game where it’s been played.

He’s so close to the real issue, that marching bands are incredibly lame and should be eradicated.

He is correct. NEVER PLAY IT! It's kind of embarrassing.

It's only played at the end of a blow out win. I guess you don't like wins.
