    We get cheap clappers and like that instead. Yes, I know. We still end up winning in the end but I've always wondered that. Are they really that cheap?

    I don't think it's about being cheap. Don't clappers cost more than rally rags.

    Rally rags and t-shirts don't make any noise. Better to give people the means to make noise than to make the whole place telegenic.

    I would think thousands of pieces of plastic are far more expensive than pieces of fabric.

    They're too small to "wear".

    They've done it at some point, a friend sent me one. Not from a playoff game though.

    They gave out shirts during Game 2 of the Finals last year ... of course Time-Warner paid for them.

    HEB sponsored shirts were given out during game 1 of the Finals last year. I sometimes work out in mine, it's too big for me to wear as a regular shirt.

    I went to the NJ-Spurs game here in Joisey, and they gave a free Devin Harris tshirt to everybody. What was funny is that they would not give us the plastic clappers, because we were not Nets fans. I laughed so hard that day, I guess they really think those clappers really work against players shooting freethrows.

    The clappers aren't plastic they're cardboard. You fold the piece of cardboard into a fan looking thing and then you hit it against your hand. And like someone already said they fall apart pretty easily. The one i got yesterday tore and fell apart by the 3rd quarter.

    Some of them (not that game) have been plastic. I have a few of them at my house.

    Yeah i have some of the plastic ones too but the ones that they've been giving away in the playoffs have been the same cardboard ones. I would rather get rags or shirts but i guess they just give us stuff we can make noise with but if you're going to a PLAYOFF GAME you should be making a lot of noise anyway, but whatever as long as we win.

    I seriously doubt the Spurs handed anything out Time Warner.

    Time Warner handed out shirts on the street corners leading into the AT&T Center at some point during last year's playoffs. They were black, had a cartoonish Manu, and said something like "Go For 4." It was an unsuccessful effort to black out the building -- I want to say it was for Game 2 of the Finals, but can't say that for certain.

    Precisely, TW handed out the shirts. They aren't a Spurs sponsor and I'm sure it wasn't a coordinated effort to black out the building. More like TW trying to market in the building.
