Who is the screaming Fever fan disrupting home game broadcasts?

If you’ve been watching Indiana Fever home games this season, you might have noticed a “distinct voice” interrupting the live broadcasts.

The alleged screaming voice has gotten so pronounced that a fan petition has started circulating for the Fever to do something about this on the game’s audio mix.

“During every Fever home game, a distinct and persistent voice—believed to be from a fan seated close to the scorer’s table—can be heard loudly and frequently throughout the entire game,” Change.com petitioner Josh McNattin wrote in response to the alleged noise.

“While we celebrate the passion of all fans, this particular sound consistently overpowers other audio elements, including the commentary and ambient crowd noise. As a result, it can detract from the viewing experience for many fans watching from home or streaming online.”

Of course, noisy fans becoming routine parts of broadcasts are nothing new. The Vandy Whistler has been torturing visiting teams (and their fans) for years.

While no one can be sure who exactly is the fan screaming so loudly on the game broadcasts that it has sparked numerous Reddit theories. Perhaps this screaming voice will taper out as time goes on — or once word of the petition gets back to them.

Or maybe, hopefully, the broadcast will get better at blocking it out for viewers at home.
