What: At Varsity football games, the students were making messes and distractions to the game with sill string, baby powder, whistles, and crowd surfing.

Where: Burger Stadium, Austin Texas
When: Recently
Why: The teachers felt as fit the noise makers and silly string and comments to the field were being a distraction to the players on the field.
How: Throwing baby powder and sill string, blowing on whistles, using noise makers, and crowd surfing

        In the Student section at varsity football games tend to throw baby powder in the air and use silly string, also crown surf. To the teachers this is unacceptable also while the poor language and rude comments and yelling to the field. To the footballs player, they love everything the student do for them it pumps them up and gets the players excited, they love their support to the team. The players claim that they can't even hear the comments or yelling mainly just the band, now they've made rules for this stuff some of the players are kind of sad that they won't get the kind of support they used to get.
