What was the Fargodome's loudest decibel level?

[MNLonghorn10]

On December 10, 2011 in a game against Lehigh Mountain Hawks football, the crowd noise was measured at 111 decibels, comparable to when the New Orleans Saints play in the Superdome. During the 2011 playoffs, the decibel level exceeded 130 decibels several times.[5][6] The Fargodome is sometimes called the "Thunderdome" by opposing teams.

Fargodome reached 111 decibels after Jensen scored vs Georgia Southern

"The Seahawks say Seattle's famed 12th Man has been measured at 112 decibels, louder than a power saw or rock concert but not much more quiet than a Boeing 747."

I think we could pull it off

[HerdBot]

I don't think we would actually want to go over 130 decibels. Pain sets in at 125 decibels. At 140 decibels, hearing loss can occur even WITH ear plugs. We're already as loud as anywhere in the nation. We're already approaching a rock concert

No pain, no gain ladies. Tighten the laces, slosh those drinks back, and get ready to rock and roll!!! I'm going to go deaf anyway, might as well be for a good cause!

Count me in buddy. Count me in.

Count me in. I will make as much noise as possible.

The Section 21 retirement community needs a fancy yell leader like the student section. You can hear a pin drop over there!
