Why don't we have anything?

As I watched the game I saw that the Angels fans had those thunder-stick things, and it got me thinking. Why don't we have some special rally thing? I mean we have the black taco commercial, but only we know about that. Some teams use those thunder-sticks (which I hate) and some teams have those towels that they wave around (which I also hate). As the most successful franchise in sports history shouldn't we have something? My idea?
We send a deeply worded letter expressing our concern on not having a rally thing. Then, BAM! We tell them we want them to play the black taco commercial on the jumbo screen, and after the commercial we have random fans say (into a microphone so everyone in the stadium can hear them) "Black (insert item here)." Then have other people shout black taco. It will catch on immediately. Plus, we can also hand out coupons for the blackjack taco. This, will be our rally thing. If course if you think that's stupid just sat so in a comment. Just think. A 100 years from now (que harp and drift off into a dream) they're playing the commercial at Yankee Stadium and my great-great-great-granddaughter leans over to her boyfriend and says, "My great-great-great-grandma came up with that." She'd be so proud. One game thread I just randomly said black taco and look at it now.
Anyway, tell me what you think about that or if you like it the way it is now. Clapping, screaming, and an occasionally funny sign.

I HATE THUNDERSTICKS AND RALLY TOWELS
One of my favorite things about being a Yankee fan is that we don’t need gimmicks like that to root for our team. The thundersticks make Angel stadium sound like its being attacked by a swarm of bees. The rally towels are white. Waving a white flag is the international sign of surrender. No thanks.

The Yankee fans have their voices!
Yea, some teams have towels and thunder sticks, (which are both corny) the yankees dont need that crap because everyone in the stands keep you in it no matter what inning.
Didn't I ask this exact same question on one of the threads?
well, I think that the Yanks simply don’t need them. They are loud enough without them. As someone (forget who) replied to me when I asked it, we prefer championship banners. Hopefully they can wave one of those this November.
The Yankees have Joe Buck as their rally monkey.

Joe Buck roots against the Yankees.
Maybe if you guys didn’t have your heads up your culo’s, you’d realize how much the guy flatlines when the Yankees hit a game tying HR vs. Have a HEART ATTACK when an Angel gets a base hit let alone Vlad hits HR.
