You are overthinking things. Do it when you feel it, there's no right or wrong or any criteria you need to follow. I remember in the '80s at Fitzgerald, they would do the confetti thing then too, so what? Who's embarrassed? It's just something we do, that's like a little Pitt 'tradition" too, so what? Lighten up.
wait, aren't you the one all upset about rushing the court? I am not that upset by it, just think it's pathetic. Robinson scores basket to go up 2-0, students throw confetti, game is stopped and guy comes out with a broom. Rinse and Repeat.. Is that really worthy of being called a "tradition?"
I'm not upset about rushing the court, it's no big deal to me, if a win is big enough, I like seeing it, even if there's a risk someone might get hurt, there's a risk of getting hurt coming out of the shower, so what?
I love seeing field goal posts coming down. Cant get enough of it. I want drunk 19 year olds risking life and limb to tear this thing down. I want cops on horseback waving baton at oncoming waves of students who want those posts down. If one or two kids lose their life over it, well I consider that worth it.
How many times has that ever happened? Has it happened ever, even once? Peronally, yeah, you're right! It's worth it! I miss the chaotic dangerous world that had no "safe zones" the world I grew up in. And you know what, a few people dying is WORTH IT to return to that kind of place and time, pass the acid, get behind the wheel, lets go to Woodstock, lol... I'm IN!
I'll tell you what pitt79, we live in a horrible time. me and my buddies used to go out at night and pile into the back of a buddy's pick up truck, drive around with about 8 of us back there.. When is the last time you saw anyone riding in the back of a pickup truck? We used to go out to concerts in Star lake in the back of a pickup, sitting on about 7 cases of Milwaukee's best.. Nowadays, you go to jail if your 9 year old isn't strapped into a baby seat. Are you kidding me? I used to sit on the armrest next to the driver when I was a kid.
This is kind of what I'm talking about! If you're just joking, I'M NOT, I personally MISS that world! LOL!
No, I am not kidding around. Nothing better than riding in the back of a pickup truck. Especially when you are 17, heading out to a concert in Burgettstown with endless cases of beer. I might have gone a bit overboard with the "sitting on the armrest in a car" I am telling you the truth that I did that as a kid but that one might not be such a great idea..
