I think my seats {end zone} in Husky stadium were the furtherest from the field of any stadium I have ever sat in. I had to watch the game on their screen. It really did make seeing the game diffucult....

yeah that was the most confusion ive ever seen us have on offense. Keiland Williams twice threw up his hands as if he had no clue what was going on. We didnt look prepared for all that noise at all

We tried to tell you all it gets loud in HS. ESPN recorded it at 132.something decibels for the night game against Nebraska in 1992.

Not that loud these days, but is still capable of being one of the louder stadiums in the country when the fans are into it.

How did it sound when the game ended and you looked at the score board?

Take that stupid roof off and it will sound like every other 70k seat stadium. That roof was bullshite and my view was obstructed by the press box.

I thought the lights along the East end zone were very distracting. The only time I notice them was when we were going in that direction....

After the $300 million dollar renovation next year it will be even more amazing.

I traded my crap end zone seats in Section 6 for some in Section 46 in the upper deck under the overhang. I think we were like 10 rows from the top of that stadium.

Did not seem loud up there to me. Well, loud compared to the Longhorns Stadium, but no where near as loud as Auburn, Florida, UGA, or LSU.

You should have stuck with your end zone seats. They were looking pretty sweet from sec 40 behind the press box.

Had nothing to do with the noise. Keiland does this when we play rent-a-wins at home, and I think it's the biggest reason he doesn't see the field more.

We had no view obstructions in 46. The poles coming down from the press box were outside the field's width. Maybe we were a little lower than I thought. Still liked those better than end zone angle with a track between you and the field.

Earthquake game had nothing to do with noise. It was the simultaneous jumping up and landing of 80,000 people that caused the seismograph to register. It probably would have happened in 2007 against Auburn too, if we still had the seismograph.
