    That's not saying much. The last truely loud game was the Dallas playoff game. Atlanta last year was OK

    It didn't sound that way, so it might have just been your section.

    The stadium was probably less than half full at the second half kick-off......Panthers "fans" just don't get it for the most part.

    Mine are in 108 and I was standing for 75% of the game. Seems like most of the action was at the other end this game :mad:

    No offense to the true female fans here but so many of the people at the game are women (and men for that matter) that are just there for the social aspect. They are usually out yapping and chatting and don't pay much attention to the game anyway.

    Fixing the make up or making sure enough skin is showing or just plain "loving me some me" in the mirrors is HUGE in the ladies rooms. I've almost knocked people down trying to get in and out without missing much game.

    On a broadcast nerd note--Fox has a tendency to pot the channel for crowd noise down lower than CBS/NBC/ESPN. There are some games for FOX (take last week @ Tampa) where there would be a big play and you would barely notice a crowd re-act. I notice it the most on the games called by Ron Pitts (who is awful, BTW)

    I was at the game yesterday and I can tell you that it was loud. Not as loud as the playoff games, but about as loud as last year's New England game. In fact, it reminded me a lot of that game.

    Sounded loud to me (on 3rd downs anyways). My voice is still shot from yelling. And Saints fans are so nice I married one.
