Seeing who the Carolina Hurricanes will bring out to sound the siren at home games is a highlight of the night for fans. Who should they try to get to sound it this upcoming season?

Seeing who the Carolina Hurricanes will get to sound the siren is always a highlight of the night for the fans. Some notable past sounders have included Russel Wilson, Dale Earnhardt Jr, and one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time, Ric Flair. But who should the Hurricanes look to bring out to sound it this upcoming season?

Before we get into the list, I have a few honorable mentions to get out of the way.

Sara Civian

Ah yes, the Queen of Hurricanes Twitter. Sara is a staff writer for The Athletic Carolina and covers the Hurricanes. And personally, is one of my favorite writers. Plus, maybe this kind of exposure will help her finally get that White Claw sponsorship.

Jim Cantore

This one literally writes itself. Jim Cantore has been with The Weather Channel since 1986. He is best known for his coverage of severe weather, especially hurricanes. It would be an absolute delight to see them bring him out. Seeing arguably the most well known meteorologist sound the Hurricane Siren would be sure to garner a few laughs as well.

Cam Newton

Honestly, I don’t have much to say to say about this one. I’m surprised it hasn’t happened already. Cam was the number 1 overall draft pick back in 2011 by the Carolina Panthers. He’s been the face of that franchise since he walked in. He’s a former NFL MVP and lead the Panthers to an appearance in Super Bowl 50.

Now that we have those out of the way, let’s look at who I think the Hurricanes should bring out this season.
