*gasp*

First of all, the empty trophy case has been gone since around 2014. Second, are you seriously trashing the lunch pail!?! Geez, let's replace Enter Sandman with a Bach fugue while we're at it. Perhaps we can start serving Beyond Turkey legs, and give all the Corps of Cadets tickets to ... I dunno ... lawyers in the local bar association.

Let’s agree to ditch the lame jangling Key Fobs in 2026 Hard to hear them.**
JackDSML • 11/20/25 01:10 PM ET
When every play became a key play, none of them did**
Happy Dog • 11/21/25 08:21 AM ET
Students jangled keys to mock schools that left car keys in a player's...
bgna • 11/20/25 10:10 PM ET
Totally agree. Who still has keys anyway?
Zanderhokie • 11/20/25 09:51 PM ET
Probably in the minority but never liked key play, always felt cheesy **
coshokie • 11/20/25 08:16 PM ET
Get rid of all the audio coming from the scoreboard speakers except p by p**
VT72 • 11/20/25 06:20 PM ET
Agreed. Retire the keys!**

I would prefer to ditch the Hokey Pokey - no one likes it but the band.

HokieAl • 11/20/25 02:19 PM ET
Get rid of the pizza eating and turkey eating stuff and redo the game exper
DCL • 11/20/25 06:10 PM ET
The Key play is a genius move to me. Hokies need to have "Louder keys"
jonnyhawk • 11/20/25 02:50 PM ET
How about this, a new Dog Tag for each top 25 team we defeat.
jonnyhawk • 11/20/25 04:44 PM ET
someone develop a key jangle app for digital key users**
Ho_Ki • 11/20/25 03:24 PM ET
Actually, we just need more cowbell**
section11hokie • 11/20/25 03:23 PM ET
Everything is a push start with key fob only or mobile app
MKD • 11/20/25 03:10 PM ET
It isnt even cool enough to be "lame"**
Vippie1 • 11/20/25 02:07 PM ET
+1...Key Play never made practical sense to me. Now let's come up with

I'm not a marketing genius, but instead of getting rid of that tradition...
jonnyhawk • 11/20/25 01:37 PM ET
Please God no.,,I hate the cowbells at Miss State**
WV Gobbler • 11/20/25 08:06 PM ET
I was thinking air horns....60k+ going off at once.**
FlintMS • 11/20/25 02:04 PM ET
Not allowed by the ACC per Rule 3.1.11 Artificial Noisemakers**
VTHokie2000 • 11/20/25 02:33 PM ET
So get two “Hoakies” cups and bang them together
Marooned • 11/20/25 08:38 PM ET
So how does MSU get cowbells in?**
HoakieBS • 11/20/25 03:35 PM ET
cowbells are real, not artificial noise makers
Ho_Ki • 11/20/25 06:12 PM ET
Since I referenced an ACC rule, I would assume the SEC has its own set of
VTHokie2000 • 11/20/25 03:39 PM ET
ahh, that 's why vuvuzela disappeared**
Ho_Ki • 11/20/25 03:26 PM ET
Cue Christopher Walken
Marooned • 11/20/25 02:03 PM ET
I believe the ACC (or NCAA) has a rule outlawing fans using a device to
VTHokie2000 • 11/20/25 01:45 PM ET
So the fans can't bring noisemakers, but the stadium can crank up music...
EDGEMAN • 11/20/25 01:56 PM ET
Per the ACC 2020-21 Manual,
VTHokie2000 • 11/20/25 02:31 PM ET
The PA system does it in between plays and stops at the start of the play.
VTHokie2000 • 11/20/25 02:27 PM ET
Tell the yahoos at Syracuse that rule!**
EDGEMAN • 11/20/25 06:53 PM ET
Maybe some day someone will take a pin to the JiffyPop Dome and solve
VTHokie2000 • 11/21/25 07:51 AM ET
Would say 75% of the noise in the JiffyPop Dome is PA generated.
EDGEMAN • 11/21/25 07:54 AM ET
You are probably right. The material used for the dome and even the shape
VTHokie2000 • 11/21/25 08:04 AM ET
I've never seen an official stop any artificial noise**
tallahasseehokie • 11/20/25 02:56 PM ET
I have seen a couple games where it happened. One game was due to the
VTHokie2000 • 11/20/25 03:02 PM ET
Mississippi St cow bells. How are they allowed if NCAA bans such things?**
Virginian42 • 11/20/25 01:47 PM ET
See the hyperlink in my response to Edgeman**
VTHokie2000 • 11/20/25 02:28 PM ET
There are explicit Rules on their use at Miss State**
TheFacts • 11/20/25 02:06 PM ET
A vestige of the past that has overstayed its welcome. **

JDods123 • 11/20/25 03:07 PM ET
Lunch pail defense is an institutional treasure IMHO!**
MDHokie79 • 11/20/25 02:40 PM ET
The "Lunchbox" helped immensely in landing Franklin.
Coattail Hokie • 11/20/25 02:34 PM ET
when the defense rises again to Bud's defenses' level
Vippie1 • 11/20/25 03:33 PM ET
As long as we don’t go to the Train leaving the station overused noise**
JackDSML • 11/20/25 01:19 PM ET
Crowd going nuts is the best noise there is. **
