Anyone gone to basketball games and have not been able to stand it because of the buzzer that goes off? I used to watch basketball games and couldn't stand it because of the loud buzzer that went off constantly.

I been to a few and I'm ok with the buzzer. I alsdo play basketball through Special Olympics and they sometimes use the buzzer to stop the quarter.

The loud buzzer doesn't bother me much. I think it's because I expect it to go off from time to time and I prepare for that. At any sporting event, I get more annoyed by bad fan behavior than anything.

the buzzer does not bug me. it is meant to be there.

i just get annoyed when there is a fan with a loud horn close by that insists on blowing it constantly. does not annoy further away just when closer up.

No, buzzer does not annoy me too much. I'll echo tweety though in my condemnation of the horns. Or the "clappers" that some of them have.

As for the buzzer, I just keep my eye on the clock and prepare myself. Not so bad since the Perth team changed stadiums. It's more a pleasant sounding Horn rather than a bzzzt buzzer.
