Effect of Noise at the Fargo Dome

[Mr. Burgundy]

Friday will be Georgia Southern crazy. The tailgate will be crazy. When Chris runs out, it will be psycho crazy. SDSU will need to get through the initial energy as it will be different. Friday nights in the playoffs are just different. To go to Frisco....it is different. Face it, the last two weeks, we couldn't lose. THis matters and the fans know it. This one is for the arrogant coaching staff at SDSU to realize who the boss is, and who it has been. do your job.

I'd be happy to let them borrow my meters that read accurately to 185 dB.... But our fans will be disappointed because it uses a sensor instead of microphone to measure sound pressure and for that reason it is about 10dB lower reading than the inaccurate microphone based meter that is easy to "spike" with sudden bursts.

Isn't proximity a big issue in measuring decibels? For instance, it is going to be much higher right next to the crowd than 100 feet away. Correct?

Can someone change the title of this thread to the correct usage of "Effect"?

Thanks to the mod who fulfilled my request!

SDSU plays in the dome more than anyone. As much as I wish i was wrong, there is no way noise level is going to have an impact on SDSU. Lets get real.

Wrong. 1 penalty could be the difference plus our players have to feed off it.

You are wrong, having to use a silent count removes the offense's advantage.

They should talk about how bad the pretzels are.

Those things are horrible!

Feed the Bunnies the Pretzels!!! Give us the mini-donuts and the trophy please!!! Going to be a crazy. crazy crowd Friday; Seniors will be playing for the last time in the Dome and for their coach, Younger player will be playing for the Seniors....NDSu going to be unbeatable!!!! SDSU using a silent count removes any possibility of play changes on the field for the offense; just tee it up and hope it works.

I feel like the number of SDSU fans and their ability to be relatively "loud" compared to other opponents while we are on offense will have an impact on our own fans and their desire to make more noise. It's usually so damn quiet you can hear all the checks at the line. Not this week. It will be just loud enough to piss of the home fans and make them want to bring the noise.

How many tickets are sold through the visiting team's ticket office? How many Bunnie fans will be there? It might be more than usual, but still shouldn't be enough to disrupt the game.

I don't really believe those decibel records are legitimate. Supposedly the Fargodome's record is 119, but the world record in a stadium is 143? That's over 100 times as loud. Every 10 points is 10 times louder.
