12th Man Appreciation Thread

Sounded incredible from the tv broadcast today and they usually really lower those field/ambient mics.  

 

I really need to get the stadium this year.  I remember in 98 the dolphins game was insane and then the jets game which was a tough loss the crowd was nuts.  I have vivid memories of sitting in the parking lot listening to the postgame and Parcells press conference and he talked about how good the crowd was that day.

 

anyway it seemed really loud just from the tv broadcast so the stadium must have been incredible.

I am going to listen to the radio broadcast today and see how that sounds

Too bad they couldn’t get Guinness back out there to measure the decibel levels. 

 

That stadium, the way it is layed-out will never set a noise record.  If you transplanted our crowd into seattle, KC, or an indoor stadium, I have no doubt we would have the record, even on an average day.

Coach McDermott said it was loudest game he was at and even on offense they had trouble communicating.

 

How loud was it at game and were fans so excited they could not be quiet on offense or were their that many Fishy Friends there?

I remember in UB there were busloads of students from NYC and Lon G'island who would go to games against JEST and a few busloads for Mijami games.

As a seasoned contrarian I have to call out the lower rows of Sec 135.

 

Moved from front row aisle seat of Sec 114 2 years ago for better resale and to finally get on the Bills side and the crowd is disappointing. I'm the only STH that seems to attend games (full disclosure I typically sell 2 -3 of tix to susidize the $7K cost, and if you have some in the vicinity of Row 5 please make yourself known) so you would think that reseller attendees would be more enthusiastic. Those around me make multiple trips to get alcohol and food at the most inopportune times and are more interested in getting selfies than the game. Most importantly they rarely if ever cheer.  [End of Rant]

Crowd as a whole was well disciplined from the defense/offensive perspective.

Very surprised at the low percentage of Miami fans, especially with the season they were having.

It was roughly 50% that loud last week.

 

In DC, when the commanders had the ball. 

 

I was there for my annual trip I take with college buddies where we pick one away game to all travel to from our current locations. We’ve done ATL, Baltimore, Jax, KC, and Miami so far. DC was the First time I’ve been to an away Bills game where the home team struggled at times on third down because it was so loud. It was awesome.

I was at the game yesterday, and my voice is barely functional today. I don't recall screaming and yelling more at any game in my life. A couple times I was yelling so hard I started getting dizzy. It was LOUD.

 

There were Dolphins fans there, but nothing like you'd see with some other teams like the Steelers. I don't recall hearing them much at all during the game, even in the first quarter.

 

In the 4th quarter, up 28, I wanted to keep yelling to stick it to them but could barely do it from being so tired out. Fun stuff.

I was disappointed by the crowd at the 2022 home opener, people were being loud when the Bills were on offense and didn't start cheering on defense until the ball was basically being snapped, they were just sluggish and particularly drunk that day. Seemed much more dialed in yesterday, the noise came almost as soon as the teams huddled up.
