It seems this year it has not been as loud.  Was it the poor start? Are fan complacent? Are fans suffering Argo- itis?

I think we will turn the corner with earn bleeding noise tonight.

The Banjo Bowl was as loud as ever!
Other sold out games tough to tell.
I think maybe your hearing is going. :D

HMMMM I have to disagree, it's been very loud the last 3 or 4 home games. Sell out loud. The banjo bowl was extreme loud. My ears were actually ringing a bit post game. So much fun !!

I now sit pretty high up in 200-level, and it's not as loud as I remember when I used to sit all over.

So tonight I found out why... I walked down a few times to get chow while our D was playing, and the farther down I got, the louder it got!  Like maybe 6 or 9dB increase.

So maybe you've been sitting farther back?  I still get ringing ears after games, but it's not like it used to be when I was often in the first 6 rows of upper or lower sections.

I miss those old days where the noise would get to distortion / ear-damaging levels.  I really liked that.  It's still there -- I'm just in the wrong spot.

All I know is my Apple Watch warns me when I'm in a loud environment. Early in the games I get the 90 decibel warnings. Late in games I get the 100 decibel warnings.

Seems pretty loud.

The roof funnels sound down. The lower you go the louder it gets. I've sat down on the field before in that party/corporate zone by the visiting bench and it's hard to hear anything when it's cranked up in there. Can't imagine trying to call plays and communicate something like a football offense when you can't even talk to the person beside you about nothing important.

Last nights game was loud in the first half but in the second half with the game well in hand it might have got a little quieter. The games that are close are always loudest and get louder later in the game until the fourth quarter is deafening.
