I wouldn't go to this one if I had a free ticket. This is why it will never be as loud as the early 90's We are in the Era of the Away Fan. Tickets are more and more expensive and people are moving all over the country, also fans are motivated now to take vacations and season ticket holders will sometimes sell a game like this to make more $ on them and help pay for the rest.

I think it was like 2 seasons ago? The guy sat underneathe the upper deck overhang, and only messured the cheers after touchdowns. If he checked it during 3rd downs and was in the lower part of the 100 level, i guarantee the decibles are higher. 1
Wacka Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 The loudest game I was to was a Bills Miami game in the 90s.One of the Kelly-Marino matchups.You couldn't hear a thing all game. I lost my voice a ew minutes into the game

The Bills were trolling by selling football pumps at the Bills store that day lol As far as loudest game, I don't think we'll get louder than it was in the early 90s when the stadium capacity held thousands more people. I watched a few playoff games from those year recently, and you could tell it was a totally different atmosphere then, and noticably louder than nowadays. 22 minutes ago, wagon127 said: The guy sat underneathe the upper deck overhang, and only messured the cheers after touchdowns.

I remember the commentator mentioning how loud it was pre snap on the Pats opening posession, but that may not have been recorded. Edited April 21, 2018 by Drunken Pygmy Goat
CaptnCoke11 Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 I always avoid going to Patriots vs Bills games. 4.5 hour drive to watch a game that’s usually over by halftime just isn’t worth it. So I’ll be avoiding the Monday night game as well.
May Day 10 Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Our stadium can't trap the noise like arrowhead or Seattle

In recent memory the Colts game followed by the Pats game were pretty loud and crazy The 1990 and 91 AFC Championship games were deafening,even in very cold weather. Theres no way to say what games were the loudest but I’d take a logical stab at it and say the 80k seat Rich Stadium was much louder than out current stadium.
swnybillsfan Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 if the rookie qb is in and looking good, and maybe the pats are finally on the downside of the dynasty, then i think it has a chance to get loud and wild. we all want to beat the pats more than anything, and to do it on a monday night, after hours of tailgating? and it is the Halloween game...so there is that added bit of craziness. could be fun. (if the pats are still the pats*, then it could be disastrous. especially if the rookie growing pains are in full swing, or if mccaron is playing and everyone is screaming for the rook)

The younger drunks that fill the stadium these days also seem to lose their energy by the second half. The 90’s Bills games I attended as a kid were much louder for the duration of the game imo.

Estro Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 I've been to roughly 100 Bills games both home and away the last 20 years. The Dallas Cowboys Monday Night game was far and away the loudest game I've ever been to. My seasons were in Section 114 that season and we stood the entire game, no one sat down. There were points in that game when the Bills were on D, where I was shouting at the top of my lungs and still could not hear myself due to the surrounding noise. That's the only game that has ever happened

Success Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 It’s time for a “flip the script” game with those guys. A blowout win on Monday night to signal the end of their run and the start of a new era of Bills domination. C’mon reality - start aligning with my dreams already. 1

The craziest atmosphere I've ever been to was when we beat the Patriots in 2011 and that includes the Dallas Monday Night game. Yes the play when Drayton Florence picked off Brady after it hit a lineman on the head and Drayton returned it for a touchdown for the lead. 1st play after kickoff after Bills had tied the game. Crazy loud. Then Drayton was on front page of SI that week for that play. Best memory of Drayton Florence by far. 7 hours ago, wagon127 said: The guy sat underneathe the upper deck overhang, and only messured the cheers after touchdowns.

Comparing the record to the Seattle sound dome when all Seattle fans knew about the record attempt, were told exactly when they would attempt it, and then coached them to break the record. With mic on field no less. Guinness book of losers. They must have corporate office in Seattle. 2

As an additional note for comparison of the 81,000 in the 1970's to 1990's vs the usual 69,000 that is considered a full house today. Many more of the 81,000 were actually outside and yelling to the field. Now thousands are packed behind glass in the clubs and suites. Effectively muted.
