I know cannons being fired has nothing to do with Bulls, but I thought it was pretty cool.

Those explosion sounds after USF scores, however ... not so nice. They may not have sounded bad in the rest of the stadium, I have no idea; but sitting right next to where it was, close to the student section, was awful.

The cannon was fired 6 times for each touchdown and once for each point after for the Bulls and 3 for field goal.  Don't kow if this is going to be a regular thing, I hope so.  It was cool.   Of course I wasn't sitting right near the cannon.

I liked the cannons; maybe it'll be something that the university and the TSA will continue.

WORST DECISION EVER!!!

We are the BULLS. Not the Pirates or Buccaneers.

Those cannons drown out the band playing the fight song and march victorious.

If we want the cannons, change the team name and get rid of the band then.

Personally I think the cannons are great...one shot for each point scored.  Yeah, it might be a little louder than a smaller cannon, but so what.  It's the start of a new tradition.

Not sure what you're thinking, but they did come from the ship.

Sorry to dissappoint, but cannons are used at some colleges games, and not just pirate/military themes:
