Last night, the Bills Mafia seemed to be extremely loud hoping to give the disadvantage to the Broncos. However, Russell Wilson seemed unfazed by it.
I love watching the NFL game where the fans get into it. To the point, I cannot hear the commentators or rather hear the crowd noise instead.
To your memory, what are some game that showcased the loudest fan bases in the NFL?
Having been to Cowboys games at both, New Orleans is way louder than Atlanta. NO is my loudest NFL.
I went to Panthers vs seahawks this season where we caused 8 false starts. I re-watched the highlights and it was LOUD at that game lol. I guess I didnt realize because were in the stands screaming half the game but that one definitely stuck out to me when I watched the highlights later
Obligatory manure chant game (also I was there).
I was at the 142.2 decibel game when the Chiefs kicked the living shit out of Tom Brady. It was incredible.
The time Wentz got booed in Philly with an empty stadium
Happened all the time at Fedex too
I was at a Seahawks game in 2013 when they were in a pissing match with KC over loudest fans. Guinness was there. Meters on the Jumbotrons.
My ears rang for a week.
Last year’s Chiefs/Raiders game at Arrowhead, after Chris Jones strip sacked Derek Carr and had it called back as RTP, was the angriest crowd I’ve ever seen. I’m not sure how it came across on TV, but the display of hostility was unmatched in my memory.
Piggybacking since you mentioned Arrowhead- Mine is the 03 playoff game against the Colts when Dante Hall returned another kickoff for a touchdown. It was absolutely wild, I’ve been to arrowhead a lot and that one is far and away the most electric and explosive experience I’ve ever had there
Niners-Saints 2011 NFC Divisonal Game. In person.
The Catch III by Vernon Davis caused the place to absolutely erupt. To the point where I was genuinely worried about the structural integrity of Candlestick lol
Russ was a Seahawk for a decade, he’s used to loud stadiums.
That being said I’ve been to a few Hawks games and it’s fucking loud. TV doesn’t do it justice.
In person, Ravens / Chiefs (the one we won)
But the loudest I’ve ever experienced on television was when I was working in Albany, NY. This was years ago, back when the Bills still sucked, and had for a long time. Fitzpatrick was the QB.
I was hanging out at McGeary’s, which was an awesome Bills backer bar. Bills / Pats was on TV, and I got a work call. Realizing how loud the bar was, I went out of the bar, across the street, and around the corner to take it – of course at some point the Bills did something good and the bar erupted so loudly that my boss said “Sounds like someone got a touchdown!” I laughed it off and said “Yeah, sure did.”
Went back into the bar after, expecting the score to be 7-0 or maybe 7-7 or 7-14 or something, but it was still 0-0. “I heard you guys screaming all the way around the corner? What happened!”
“Oh. We got a first down!”
Rams vs 49ers NFC Championship — SoFi is literally just an echo chamber and it was basically a neutral site game so no matter who was on offense or defense it was LOUD down in the inner bowl.
Lions home opener against the Seahawks this year hit 127 decibels, which is now the Ford Field record. It was insane in there and I’m glad I brought ear protection.
Seahawks games during the peak Legion of Boom years.
I went to a few games during the greatest show on turf days of the STL Rams and that stadium was shaking.
Hard to say… My last two Vikings games were the Minneapolis Miracle and the Colts game last year and that’s pretty far apart.
