Seattle Seahawks fans shouting for Guinness Record
Offer Chiefs fans a free taco at halftime and watch them beat the record
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100...uinness-record When the Seattle Seahawks host the NFC West rival San Francisco 49ers in Week 2's "Sunday Night Football" showcase, the players will renew their increasingly bitter rivalry on the field. In the stands, fans will attempt to win their own place in the record books. During the Sept. 15 showdown, fans at CenturyLink Field -- the loudest stadium in the NFL -- might break the Guinness World Record for "loudest crowd roar at a sports stadium." "Volume 12," a Seahawks fan group not officially associated with the team, announced on its Facebook page that Guinness accepted the application to give the "12th Man" the opportunity to break the record. The current record in this category of 131.76 decibels, according to SeattlePI.com, was set at the Ali Sami Yen Sport Complex Turk Telekom Arena on March 18, 2011, in Istanbul, Turkey, by fans of Turkey's Galatasaray S.K. club. (That is the other kind of football, for those not familiar.) The Seahawks' official website documents the highest decible level at CenturyLink at 112. However, the 60,000-seat stadium holds 7,000 more fans than the current record holder. Considering how loud Seahawks fans are without a record on the line, we'd be silly to bet against them. |

dont understand the obsession with loudness. Personally, I go to enjoy the game, not to go deaf.
generationdeaf.com/loudnessreference.html *Around 125 decibels, roughly as loud as a firecracker, is refered to as the pain threshold. It's the point where your ear interpert the level of sound as physically painful. Prolonged exposure at this level is very dangerous. *The average rock concert is 120 decibels. At that volume hearing damage occurs in 7.5 minutes. *The average football stadium is 115 decibels, loud enough to cause damage in 15 minutes. osha.gov/SLTC/noisehearingconservation Fans are putting their own players and NFL employees at risk of hearing loss. OSHA would only allow occupational exposure to 120 dbA for 7min. @ 130 dbA that time frame drops to 1.75 minutes. Personally, I care more about wins than loudness. Let them go deaf. |

No, but if you behead enough refs at the same time it's fairly easy to get the record.

The loudest I ever experienced Arrowhead was that stupid playoff game we lost to the Colts and TG got called for PI. I think my ears were bleeding that game.
Second loudest was the Inagural Thanksgiving Night game against the Donko's. That game took me two days to recover from |
