Why does Auburn whine and complain about out cowbells more than any other school?

I've read a bunch of stuff this week about Auburn complaining about our cowbells, and realized that they are about the only fanbase that complains about our cowbells.

Ole Miss fans, Bama fans, LSU fans, etc.. rarely ever say a word about them. Sure you may hear some random fans talking about it, but it never compares to Auburn's fans and their disgust for our tradition.

Therefore, my question is: What is it about Auburn fans that make them hate cowbells so much, and why do they seem to be more disgusted by them than any other SEC fanbase?

I realize there are many funny responses to this question, by I'm halfway serious. What is it with these people? Why do they care so much more than anyone else?

SHUG

That's all that I need to say.

They jealous.

Because they're scared. They know that we are the closest team to having their number over the past several years, but they have gotten lucky. Now they know that we have a really dangerous team so they're scared and nervous.

I think it's because they didn't think of it first. They are the War Eagles but the team is Tigers and they are on the plains and that's why they have a bird and it's really cool and then they roll Toomer's Corner.

because they generally whine and complain more than any other school. Although LSU and Ole Miss are in the same group with them.

It is my understanding that it was primarily their whining that got them banned the first time.

At least Les waited until after the game before whining about getting STOMPED!

it was Jeremey Foley at Florida that caused the re-ban after they had stopped enforcing the existing rule.

They are just doubling down on Shug.

Their whining started in the game, when MSU had gotten momentum and it looked like the highly favored Auburn team may go down in defeat. Their coach, Shug Jordan, claimed that his players couldn't hear their signals and the cowbells were an unfair advantage to MSU. I think all the other coaches (maybe some weren't, but I believe all were) were in favor of banning the cowbells.

Was it after they got croomed in 04?

is the cowbell the only artificial noisemaker excluded from the ban?

do A&M or Mizzo have any similar traditions?

edit... also, is it up to the home team to enforce the rule?

As far as I know, no other school has any traditions involving artificial noisemakers that are currently within the SEC.

I do know that Oklahoma State has massive paddles that they gave their students to slam against the massive wall in front of the student section.
