The Raiders game to go to the first SuperBowl was absolutely the loudest I’ve ever seen it. You could not communicate with the person sitting, standing next to you, you got goosebumps it was so insane...

That was awesome.  One of my favorite games.

Well that won’t be a problem for Brady. The Pats will somehow wire the calls into the crowd noise so that’s all he hears. Ernie Adams is a genius. 

 

Or maybe they'll use telepathy to get the plays in!

Damn. Must have been a huge stadium. We’re you standing inside the infield of the Daytona Raceway? 800,000 people is a lot of people.

Get it for Sunday!!! And I can't wait to be back yelling with you crazy fools. Hopefully next year. I wouldn't want to root for a team with a boring crowd.

I’d have to say the loudest I’ve ever heard the stadium was during the Monday Night game against the Cowboys. Or the win against the Pats in 2011. Both were so loud you not only couldn’t hear the person right next to you. You couldn’t hear yourself think. It gave you chills that ran right up your spine. Absolutely unforgettable.

It’s a running joke about how many people claim to have been at that game.

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

Seattle is a weak fan base, IMO. Any stadium where you have to use engineering tricks to try to make the stadium louder, is pathetic. 

[CommonCents]

Seemed loud to me. The defense chants on the last drive were intense. I still wish I could find a video of it or a replay of the game. My voice is finally back. 

[Big Turk]

The difference is Seattle was specifically designed acoustically to be very loud while New Era Field was not...

 

On a Neutral Site i would nearly guarantee Bills fans are the loudest in the NFL

He's reporting for New York Upstate now, a legit news organization, known for their "quick, publish it now, we'll spell check and correct it later" staff.

I know what he does. He reads an article, extracts the important information out of it, and then wraps some words around it. 

 

John Wawrow has made comments, not site specific, about this type of “reporting” in the past. I agree with him.

So apparently 200,000 now admit they were not there.

If you're there on Sunday.....NO excuses.

Get up and get loud. 

They feed off of our energy.

And we're the original 12th man

[Captain Hindsight]

That was the loudest I've heard the stadium since Florence's INT vs the Pats to take the lead. Which was surprising since it was the 0-2 Bengals but Its always fun when the crowd gets that loud

One thing about WNY is we have a lot of loudmouths, especially the women.

I read an article that appeared in the Miami paper before the Bills-Dolphins game in December 1990. The winner of that game was going to get home field advantage throughout the playoffs. The gist of the article was that Bills fans were better, and since the game is for the fans, they should win. It points out Miami could barely get 50,000 fans on a 75 degree day on Nov. 4 vs the Cardinals. A week later against the same team, in 25 degree weather, Buffalo had 75,000.  The funny part of the article was "by 9:00 AM they'll be half drunk. By 10:00 AM they'll be burning Miami fans' coats and hats. THEIR HUSBANDS ARE EVEN WORSE!" Somehow your comment reminded me of the article.

This is a perfect example of how WNY weather gets exaggerated.  It was 37 degrees that day, not 10 degrees.  Big difference.

That chant was amazing. I was sitting in 334 which is like center of stadium and I herd this roar coming from lower left bowl, then finally made out the defense chant and we all joined in. That last drive was nuts. I couldnt hear up in 300, could only imagine how loud it was down on the field!

 I was in 129. Still haven’t left Buffalo, we are debating getting tickets for Sunday and extending the hotel. I have Buffalo fever. 

[Nihilarian]

It was pretty loud back in the 90's too!

 

The difference is that those games were sold out with 80, 290 seats, 9k or so more seats.

 

If I'm not mistaken, back then the field had a significant crown so the Bills RB's were literally running downfield.

 

Rich Stadium, Ralph Wilson stadium, New Era field has usually been a very loud place...when the Bills are winning.

This year feels different and the fans can tell. I still have my guarded optimism with how many times I have been burned in the past but something is different. They win this Sundayband the city will be buzzing with excitement like back in the 90s.

It was 29 years ago, give me a break. Didn't check the game day weather but I have now - the 27 MPH wind made the wind chill 25. I also exaggerated on the attendance, it was 74,904, not 75,000.

I can find Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches here in Colorado but they arent the same. The chicken fingers are better in Buffalo somehow. You would think they would be easy to make.

It does feel different. For me its the depth of this team. If someone goes down with an injury, I'm not expecting a huge drop off. That makes me think this team has a chance to be legit

 

None of their wins are fluky. I'd argue in each game, they have been downright dominant at times and never really overmatched at any point

I don't know about the last drive, but Sal C posted 3 videos on twitter. One was as the go ahead TD was scored. Probably similar noise!

Seattle stadium is designed to echo the sound. Can you imagine if New Era field had a similar design? It would be even more insane in Buffalo! 

Bills Mafia best fans in sports period! 

[May Day 10]

That was always the disadvantage we have, and why we wont break the record.  Seattle is designed to harness the sound.  KC is enclosed quite a bit more 360-degrees
