Guinness World Record : Loudest roar at a sports stadium , Richmond v GWS ?

[Millsie69]

Smaller field,nfl stadiums are like sitting in a cup,sound gets trapped for longer.

You could cheat like North and Geelong and play crowd noise through the pa system.

Crows too.

they have done that and been caught

We've been shit for 35 years..... and have 70,000 + members coming off a year we didn't make finals, and many tipped us for bottom 4, GAGF.


Edit: Last time the tiges got the wooden spoon, 2007.

Richmond crowd attendance (3rd) - Total - 909,203 Average - 41,327

For the record, Adelaide finished 8th that year, and came in at 7th for crowd attendance.

If you count away attendance then Adelaide will almost always be lower as we actually play Away for all Away games.

Not for Port Adelaide matches.

 

[juss]

Only way we get close is if Dusty Martin kicks the winner, after giving Toby Greene a don't argue, then slotting a running goal from 50 on the boundary, to put us up by a point with seconds left.

Yellow and BLACK!

Sold out, the week after their opponent drew 14k. I'm not sure whether to me more concerned about the Tiger bandwagon or the Night King's army...

Heard Gil on AFL360 talking about the Night King's army.

Hai Gil. Do you read BigFooty? Or maybe I'm Gil and I don't know it...

 

[ApplecrossWC]

Tigers supporters are always talking their fans up and how big their crowds are etc etc

SO you would have to say if they don't break this record then they have to consider it a failure

How does it feel to have similar thought patterns to Gil?

The following is an accurate representation of Gil's thought patterns.




The End.

I really like AFLW and polo.

 

[magpienato]

Don't think it is possible

Not sure people understand how loud 142 decibels or an NFL game is

Is that Shannon Sharpe in your profile picture?

 

[Komrade_Tiger]

Surely a 90,000+, one-team crowd is unprecedented in AFL.

dare we say Completely Unprecedented?

 

[Rimmer]

Would be embarrassing if we did take the record, Richmond v GWS ... overseas sporting arena's would get the impression that the GWS supporters had contributed to the noise when both GWS supporters could be off buying his chips or in the dunny.

 

[Art Corvelay]

I was lucky enough to be at the drawn Grand Final in 2010. That would have broken the world record for silence after a game was played when the final siren went.

KP when Freo beat Geelong in the final was quieter. Was like a funeral procession leaving the ground.

 

[smasha]

There are no places in our sport where you can work up a huge roar.

Soccer is slow paced,nfl has ten minutes of action in three and a half hours of a game.

AFL is unrelenting from start to finish.

The 1995 semi against Essendon and also the draw,some great Tiger roars in those games.

The West Coast game that year when we had not beaten them in ten years at Princes Park,17k there but flea said it sounded like 70k.

I went troppo that day.

2013,when Richmond ran out,you could feel the walls shake.

 

[dblstR]

Going to add the prelim vs the cats - insanely loud. Watching the replay on TV doesn't do it justice.

 

[aCunningPlan]

Adelaide crowd Friday night by far the loudest I have ever heard. Been to grand finals, saw the 09 Anzac Day game, been to premier league games and Richmond games but the Adelaide fans are easily the loudest.

 

[SBD Gonzalez]

110 is 'normal' pain threshold. 150 is eardrum rupturing from excessive vibration.

Yep. some extraordinarily ignorant jizzfesting about achieving permanent hearing damage on this thread.

Folks, hearing loss is permanent and irreversible, and exposure to the sort of levels we're talking about here will cause it.

Nightclub owners dislike this.

 

[footyfan000001]

Never heard a louder noise than Pickens goal in the Grand Final last year. That was deafening.

 

[kranky al]

Meh the men's hand dryer in the dunny at work came in at 143dB.

146 is twice as loud, 149 is twice as loud again

Its an exponential curve not a linear curve.

Are you serious, do they really do that?

 

[HTT]

Lmao I thought this was about the stupid failed record attempt they did on GF day this year

 

[telsor]

Are you serious, do they really do that?

Most clubs (really most venues that want crowd noise) do this...not with 'crowd noise' as such, but just a bit of psychology...If they put background noise, then basic human reaction is to speak louder.

Music, ads, club song after a goal...it all has the same effect. Doesn't even need to be on at the time...they play music, people speak louder, music stops, they keep talking louder, and those around them who start communicating also speak louder to compensate for those around them being louder (and on it goes).

All part of building the 'atmosphere'.
