**** Elway.

Prima donna.

Never been in Arrowhead, heard it can be pretty loud.

I know the Superdome is loud as shit.

if unneccesary risks are what you are into, than please blow an air horn into your ears. Show everyone what a real man you are by going deaf.

"Last fall, Arrowhead Stadium pegged 115 decibels for an average reading. Allen Fieldhouse was at 125 decibels for the duration of the KU-Mizzou game."

Once again, only 15 minutes of exposure to 115 decibels can lead to PERMANENT hearing loss (not necessarily complete hearing loss).
------------------------------------------------------------------

Some facts from uptodate:
Hearing loss is a common chronic impairment, particularly for older adults. In the Beaver Dam cohort in the United States, the prevalence of hearing loss, defined by audiometry, increased steadily with age:

3 percent ages 21 to 34
6 percent ages 35 to 44
11 percent ages 44 to 54
25 percent ages 55 to 64
43 percent ages 65 to 84

Worldwide, estimates from the World Health Organization are that hearing loss affects 538 million people

Noise exposure — Everyday noise exposure, compounded over time, has an impact upon our ability to hear. Excessive noise can ultimately affect the degree of the presbycusis that develops. Constant exposure to loud noises can cause high frequency sensorineural hearing loss.

A short blast of loud noise also can cause severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss, pain, or hyperacusis (pain associated with loud noise). This usually involves exposure to noise greater than 120 to 155 dB. Thus, hearing protection in the form of muffs or plugs is highly recommended anytime a person is exposed to loud noise.

Arrowhead is nothing like it use to be but I have no doubts it'd beat the 12th man after our 1st playoff win...

BEAST MODE!

...in 20 ****ing years

WHAT?!?

If sandy vaginas are your thing, why don't you pour some more sand in your vagina and show everyone what a sandy vagina you have? I'll even bring the sand.

I hope they all splatter their spleens.

Yeah there is an article out there somewhere about the owner consulting experts about how to design the stadium to make the most noise without being a dome. On a side note, that is some stadium name in Turkey. Probably called ASYSCTTA for short.

Playoff win pfft. Our first playoff win will come as we are a #5 or #6 seed.

I lived in Seattle for nearly 20 years and now live in Portlandia where the women have asses and the beer flows like wine. That stadium and the 12th man crap is such a joke. That city is band wagon fandom as I have ever experienced. I have been in Arrowhead when the red sea is deep and the tomahawks are flyin and I have spent many a Sunday in the Seattle Puget Sound wind bowl stadium and there is no comparison. KC kicks their ass!! They call it the 12th man but it sounds like eight fat chicks fartin in the dark. At least it did the last time the Chiefs kicked their ass!!!!

LMAO Mac-Niners must have been in the hizzle.

I guess they set the record last night. Congrats Seahawks fan!

Back in July, we first mentioned that the 12th man -- the name Seahawks fans go by -- would use the Week 2 matchup against the 49ers to try to break the Guinness World Record for the loudest stadium in sports history.

It didn't hurt that the Seahawks dominated the 49ers on Sunday night. During a third-quarter goal-line stand, CenturyLink Field reached 136.6 decibels, shattering the previous mark of 131.9 set by ... the 12th man just two quarters earlier.

The Seattle Times confirmed the result with Phil Robertson, a judge from Guinness.

Coming into the game, fans of Turkish soccer club Galatasaray S.K held the record of 131.76 decibels, set in March 28, 2011.

Robertson, who is more familiar with soccer venues, was impressed with Seahawks fans.

"It's a far louder, tribal kind of passion," and "the sound is more continuous," he said. "There's passionate people in soccer, but here you see veins bulging out of necks."

Less impressed, no doubt: Comedian Bill Burr, a Massachusetts native and Patriots fan, who joked last October, following Seattle's upset win over New England (and led to Richard Sherman's "U Mad Bro" Twitter meme), that the 12th man was a farce.

"Seattle, their fans annoy the f--- outta me, they really do," Burr said on his podcast (you can listen here, around the 6:10 mark, but almost all of it is NSFW). "I am so sick of them getting all this f------ credit for being this loud crowd, the 12th man. You know who the 12th man should be? Your 12th man every week should be the architect that built that stadium because they knew you guys were just average f------ fans so they had to design a symphony hall to enhance how loud your cheers are."

As Richard Sherman might suggest: Scoreboard, Bill


And in case you're wondering, Ellerbe Beckett, LMN Architects and Streeter & Associates are the architects responsible for CenturyLink Field.
