Sport Science: CenturyLink Field (Seahawk's stadium designed to be loud)
ESPN ^ | 1-10-2014

FOOTBALL FANS WILL ENJOY THIS VIDEO explaining why the Seahawk's stadium is so loud -- setting the record of 137.6 decibels. They beat the Kansas City Chiefs' 137.5. A jet engine at 100 feet is 140 decibels. If you want to own a hearing aid company in the future, head to Seattle.

I was on that project when they demolished it. That site scared the poop out of me.

Yeah..I really like paying that restaurant tax on the Lucas Oil on top of it. And the capital investment board (or whatever they’re called) had so much trouble keeping Banker’s Life maintained as well. :-(

I agree, I think the teams are darn near equal in all respects, it will be home field advantage and with extra noise, SF has never been that loud and if they were fans wise the stadium wasn’t.

I bet both sides are working on more non verbal forms of signals.

What really grinds me is that the Irsays get the money from all the non-Colts events held there, that f_cking Bart Peterson gave them a deal beyond belief.

Well that explains why they didn’t move to L.A.
