Just use jazz hands instead.

Can you imagine 12,000 fans all using jazz hands when a goal goes in.

Not sure it would go down too well either in a minute's clapping for a recently deceased player or official.

They should sit in the directors box at the City they never clap there either

Can't get the image out of my head of the entire crowd all standing up and just giving jazz hands.

Or as they say in Japan, "No Crapping!"

I love the amount of nauses all over the web this story as triggered.

Not very likely

Union officer Sara Khan said traditional clapping can cause issues for students with autism, sensory issues or deafness.

How can clapping be a problem for someone who is deaf, surely they can't hear it?

Heard this on the news, properly softy shit

Well there are obviously different degrees of deafness, from partial hearing to totally deaf.

I kind of like the sentiment, but in practice it would all just be a little daft and like I say, if you wanted a one minute's applause for someone who has just passed away, seeing a crowd of jazz hands would be quite laughable.

They used to call me jazz hands in Uni or was it jizz hands?

I can remember but I was well cool.

Just let me know which uni you went to and when. I want to make sure I never shook your hand.

Well Bobby Gould used to sit with his dad and talk him through the entire game.

There is also a little thing called the radio.

bawtryneal · Oct 2, 2018

What if Bobby Gould can't make it and they left their radio at home because they couldn't find it.

There's a thing called a mobile phone.

They have radio apps built in.

Swear this story pops up every year. Student politics gonna student politics. Just a bunch of no mates on a power trip (like all politics then really)

It’s BSL clapping to be fair so I guess you’d have to ask them, but I’d imagine deaf people aren’t so great at picking up auditory cues?

I might build that into my funeral plan, mind you.

Houchens Head · Oct 2, 2018

I asked my son about this. He was born totally deaf and uses BSL to communicate (which I also use). Neither of us have heard about the so-called jazz thing? Seems to me it's just another internet myth.

I went to the university of hard knocks my friend and I'm still studying pretty damn hard.

Manchester University have banned clapping, whooping and cheering? ......Pah! Old news!

They've been doing that for weeks down at Old Trafford.
