Dees fans: It can't just be me who cringes when the bugler pulls out his instrument and plays as the players are lining up for the bounce. Steeped in tradition is the role is, I think he completely saps the ground of any atmosphere created by the players running out of the race. Ideally, we'd have him play before the players come out and have the best of both words, but if that's not an option than, as beautiful as his smoking jacket may be, he's got to go.

The momentum is undeniable now. Clearly I am not the only one who finds the bugle completely out of place.

Finally someone said it. It is so cringe watching him stand there in that silly outfit while everyone is trying to get hyped for the bounce. Get him off the ground.

kills the vibe completely at the mcg. we need more noise from the crowd not a bugle solo that no one asked for.

Total buzzkill. Keep the tradition at the museum where it belongs.
