Oh trust me, I've been talking to them about changing a couple things, but this is not one of them...sorry.

Although it would've been highly unlikely that I'd go (even in the near future), I hope it doesn't continue to be this way since I'd like to go to Canada some time (and what better than a con heh). I guess I'll see you, Vlad and the other Canadians at AWA :-P But apparently Vlad sucks (from previous thread in Contests haha)
Maybe... but I don't suck as much as dokidoki

I agree with all those who hate the chair. I heard from a friend of mine that it started at Otakon 2000 during the cosplay (although I heard from someone that it may have started somewhere else). One of the staffers put a chair out on stage, but the cosplayers were too nervous to go on. So there was a good 30 seconds (at least) of just the chair on the stage. People got bored too quickly so they started chanting. When my friend told me this it seemed pretty funny. But he then told me that people would start chanting "chair" to boo cosplayers off the stage, and that the chanters wouldn't stop. All of the sudden it didn't seem that funny anymore.

I got a sense of what it was like when I went to Otakon 2001. It was horrible. :cry:

Chair

Post by anneke » Mon Mar 17, 2003 12:37 am

I just want to change the chant from 'chair' to 'corn'. It will be so amusing to see hords of fan boys chanting and wanting corn. <giggles>

I've never been to Anime North, and I've seen this come up @ CNAnime... ahwell.

Instead of chanting 'chair'... and the event taking place in canadian... chant 'You Screwed Bret'... I assure you instant laughs... well from me anyways! :wink:

Sounds like to me that the chair chants gotten just about as annoying as the "WHAT?" chant.. :?

Hey this year at otakon if you see someone dressed up as Gene Starwind and he Rock Bottom a Pikachu or whatever start chanting "Rocky, Rocky,Rocky." As you see him walk down the hall. I don't if any of you saw it last year but I did Rock Bottom Pikachu and I'll cause it more pain this year.

It's a move.

Post by genestarwind21122 » Tue Mar 18, 2003 9:13 pm

If you ever watch the WWE or smackdown which is wrestling their is a person called the rock and he does a move called the Rock bottom. First you take the persons arm place it over your shoulder. Then you put your other hand on his back for balance when you jump up in the air and slam him down into the ground or mat. And that's the rock bottom. " You better get ready."

The chant isn't annoying.. just the fact that stupid people started chanting it during promos other than Austin or Angle...
