Abstract
A group-controlled audio entertainment system provides each member of a group with the ability to rapidly select an audio clip from a menu of canned audio clips, and to cause an audio speaker to timely play the selected audio clip in a room where the group is watching a sporting event. The menu of audio clips is chosen to include a variety of sound recordings that fans will consider amusing or pertinent to certain types of sporting events, such as pre-recorded 'trash-talk' clips. The system also allows users from remote locations to send audio clips to the audio speaker, to thereby 'trash talk' during game time. Remote users can record audio clips and then forward them to the group-controlled audio speaker, or can send text and/or email messages to the group-controlled speaker that the system converts to corresponding audio.
