I'd say the Celtics at Boston Garden. They went 40-1 @ home regular season, not including undefeated in the playoffs in 1986. We may never see that. No air conditioning and rats everywhere.

Buffalo on a snowy, sub 0 game or Lambeau on a icy night definitely makes for a home field advantage.

I think elevation is what makes the biggest difference. Bolivia playing soccer games at 12,000 feet altitude for example.

Red Star Belgrade

Opposing players have to make this walk to get to the field before every game.

Highly urge anyone not familiar to watch.

1987 Minnesota Twins. They went 56-25 at home and 29-52 on the road. That 85-77 record was somehow good enough for them to win the AL West and make it to the World Series. Then they had the great fortune of having home field advantage in the World Series where they unsurprisingly lost all three road games but won all four home games to win the World Series.

Is this a myth? Hasn’t been a huge home advantage for them over the years. Especially in the Playoffs

It wouldn’t be home field so much as preferred venue, but Rafael Nadal on Phillipe Chatrier is pretty damn solid, especially at his absolute peak in 2008.

New Orleans Breakers 2022 season opener was a powder keg crowd. Apparently the fans were so ruckus they wouldn't let them in the game.

What's their home record in the playoffs the last few years?

Can you really call it home field advantage when they were just better than everybody else though?

This was because of a home field advantage?

As Favre stated one time "Nobody likes playing in that crap".
