    First Clapper- In a crowd, one who first begins the clap. This person usually is a leader with a bold personality. Has potential to be political or a business leader.

    Second Clapper- A crowd participant who usually waits for someone else to begin clapping. A follower usually. A meeker personality. Does not like to stand out. Accountants, clerks, medical doctors, financial analysts are career paths for second clappers.

    No Clapper- A crowd participant who does not clap whatsoever. This person is usually a hater.


    What are you?

    No clapper. I will sometimes clap first, if it has the potential to cause an awkward scene.

    What does it mean to a Last Clapper? I always hear an extra clap at the end.

    I'm a first clapper, but I clap slow and meaningful like the big jock in Can't Buy Me Love.

    I'm a first clapper. I sometimes end up clapping out-of-place, like clapping for a fast break that ends up in a blown lay-up, clapping for a good stop by a shortstop who then throws the ball away, or clapping for a song that's not quite over. I'm a pretty expressive guy, though, so I doubt whether I could ever be a second clapper.

    At Bayern Munich football matches, I have sponsor seats, yet I act like someone in the standing seats (sort of like a "red rowdy"). I get weird looks for that...

    I'm often a first clapper. It's only weird when the others don't follow...but if you're persistent and convincing enough, they will.

    Just never clap on a plane.

    I was downtown walking to my bus stop yesterday and some homeless guy stood up and started clapping for me for no apparent reason. I said 'thank you very much sir' and went on my way.

    I'm pretty sure he was a first clapper.

    I remember being scared of The Clap early in life, but I actually acquired Chlamydia first.

    this thread reminds me of the scene in American Pie 2 where the lead character is playing the trombone at band camp.

    I am a first clapper, but only because I want to see if I can get everyone else to clap also.
