Crowd Predictions

[TAB420]

The fact that my voice is still toast and it's Wednesday, I suspect many feel the same.

Same here. I swear my vision went blurry during the kickoff return.

when KC set the record, they did a countdown from 10. they let the crowd know when The Guiness Book people were going to take the reading and the coordinated the crowd. Ours was taken live, during the game without any notice.

 

[Pandion Haliaetus]

Too bad we don’t have the Dark Side uni yet and opportunity to wear alternates in the Play-Offs yet because Lumen going full black out mode in this game would be made for tv chaos magic.

People knew that Guinness was recording the decibel level, it was well publicized, but you are correct that it was organic unlike KC's record.

 

[Jayburd14]

This is true actually. LA only jumps on the bandwagon when a team has a chance to win. @RedAlice of course is exempt from this statement...

I concur, my last 3 Seahawks games I attended in person were against the Rams in LA and it's always a 50/50 crowd

 

[SoulfishHawk]

That's what makes that stupid "RAMS HOUSE" sign even more hilarious. Is it really?

That is true, however Guinness went to lumen and did the same countdown and we didnt get it.
Its not like they are louder per person. Humans have a range of noise they can make. Its the design.

There was no countdown at the Seahawks game, I was there.

The 12th man has never needed a check list on when to make noise, we have brought it naturally for decades, actually the noise here during games happened before we had the Seahawks, Husky Stadium was known for its crowd noise as well, go to a Sonic Game in the Coliseum especially in the playoffs and the building was vibrating due to noise inside.

The fan noise got noticed by the Media when we were in the Kingdome and the false starts were happening, brought to more attention by players like Elway complaining. That went well didn't it

So after the chiefs game with the countdown record they went to Seattle the next week. They did the same countdown and we didnt get it.

I think you are misremembering. Seahawks didn't have a home game the week after the Chiefs broke the record.

I am a season ticket holder, didn't miss a game during this time period. There were no countdowns for any record attempts with the Seahawks.

 

[Glasgow Seahawk]

The Rams have one of the smallest fan bases in the NFL, and most of them still live in St. Louis. I don't think they travel well, and I predict there will be fewer LA fans this week than there were 49er fans last week.

I live in LA, and I have never met a Ram fan. I know more Charger fans, and there are still a lot of Raider fans. They still televise most of the Raiders games here in LA, which really pisses me off.

LA is a Dodgers and Lakers town. When the Rams play at home, they have to deal with crowd noise. One game this season was estimated to have 61 percent opposing fans:

‘SoFi will be mostly 49ers fans’

The home attendance problem is still a problem

My in laws are Rams fans but thats from when the team played in Anaheim and they used to cycle over to practices as kids in the 80s and early 90s. They kind of just stuck with them once they left.

 

[MORGULON]

I predict there will be a large crowd

 

[chris98251]

Will spend far more than they intended !

 

[Aussie Seahawk]

The fact that my voice is still toast and it's Wednesday, I suspect many feel the same.

Back in 2002, when my local Aussie rules club (Sturt) won the Premiership, after a 26 year drought, I arrived at work on the Monday, unable to speak at all. My boss insisted I was very ill, despite my croaky protestations that I was fine, and sent me home!
Anyway, back to the point - I hope to hear you in the 12Crowd, voice recovered, helping to dock the Rams!

So here is a video of it. The testing guy hyped up the crowd after the countdown. We broke the record.
Then they did the same thing at the chiefs, then did it again here. We didn't win.

They tested all game for both teams.

They never did the count down here. They did flash signs saying 12 man pride. This video you posted was from Sept 15th in 2013, the first time we broke the record against the Niners. The Chiefs then broke the record in October. We then took the record back in December vs the Saints. Similar setup, no countdown. The Chiefs took the record the next year in 2014. There was talk of Volume 12 bringing Guinness back again but as far as I know that never happened.

Again, I was at all of these games. Not sure whether you are misremembering or just have your story mixed up, but you are incorrect.

I very well could be mistaken. I remeber them telling us they were going to record. I thought it was a countdown, maby not, its been a while.
I remeber them doing this recording as the game was not in action. Thats why blitz was there. I remeber it was cringe chearing randomly for this guy as he hyped the crowd. It was not organic.

They were recording the whole game, not just one specific moment. We broke the record on actual plays during the game. Nuff said.

 

[Runscott]

Can someone who actually attended this game comment if there were that many SF fans in the crown?

I was sitting on the 50 yd line, second row, behind the 49'ers bench. So yeah, where I was there were plenty of 49'er fans, but we still outnumbered them by probably 4-1. I've found that Rams and 49'ers fans are willing to pay a lot more than we are for tickets at Lumen. It's a mini-vacation for them and for many, probably the only away game they are going to, so it makes sense.
