Intimmidation

I know this will probably sound poxy to you guys, but I thought of this when reading about Cordone and his nickname being the Wolf.

During ancient times, well the Roman empire really, the Dacians from around Romania way (in the Carpathians) had this little intimidation device for when they were going into battle.

What it was was a bronze wolfs head with a long wind sock trailing behind it. The wind would blow through the open mouth of the wolf and down a ten foot tube of material and create a howling noise.

Can you imagine what SJP would be like with a couple of hundred of these devices, especially in winter when the wind picks up. You could have a bronze wolf head with black and white wind socks. It would really spook the opposing teams and their fans.
