air horns
Stadium celebration blasters
Air horns are loud, compressed-gas devices that produce a blaring, attention-grabbing sound.
They're used at sporting events, on boats for signaling, and in emergencies.
The term extends to similar electronic devices and sound effects: Someone kept blasting an air horn during the press conference.
To air horn someone is to interrupt them obnoxiously with this sound.
