Re: Noise levels this weekend

First, let me say this: Ugh, we get Joe Buck and Aikman again? Bummer!!!! Ok, second, I was at the game Saturday, and I am hoarse as can be even now! Got so warm in there from yelling and screaming, and then out in the cool again...hot again at the hotel trying to get checked in....I came home running 102*!!! But it was worth it! Wish I could be there this weekend! Someone please put some of those coins in a bottle and take up my slack, ok? We unfortunate folks that are having to watch from home are gonna be rooting for the crowd, too!

Life is too short to be miserable....make changes while you can!

Re: Noise levels this weekend

on 870am a lil earlier, they were warning fans NOT to put coins inside bottles or use any other kinda of artificial noise in the super dome, so our saints dont get penalized or u may get it takin away. what a bummer. i was reallly gonna try the coin in bottle trick this week

This is correct. Apparently the NFL got word that Saints fans were being prompted to bring bottle caps and coins to make noise with drink bottles in the dome. They are now trying to get the word out to warn fans that we could get penalized on the field for creating artificial noise.

Here's a suggestion. Try passing the word for people to yell as loud as they can at the highest pitch they can. As a musician I can tell you that just by increasing the pitch of your voice when you scream you can double the effect. If you've ever played with an Equalizer then you know that the lower frequencies can really shape the tone, but its those mid-range and higher frequencies that can really agitate your hearing if pushed.
So, for you guys with really deep voices, try using a chip bag clip. That should help get you up there at least a half octave higher with minimal damage.

Got to prevent any advantage the Saints may have so their super hero gets to his Super Bowl. What a load of garbage. The Vikings have been pumping in crowd noise for decades.

They always find a way to spoil our fun, don't they. In that case, tune up those vocal chords, game goers! Someone has to take up my slack this time!

Re: Noise levels this weekend

good i see some of you have already corrected me on my penny trick. Well let me tell you that the souveneir cup trick does work. It cost 5$ for a cup, and hell surely you will be thirsty. Gulp it down, throw the ice away and scream into it. I usually try and put the cup under my chin and angle it towards the field. Sounds stupid but it works. I can automatically tell I am louder than anyone around me. It shouldn't be hard to get people pumped.. I mean this is why we are Saints fans. We live and die for this s#*t!!!!!!!! WHO DAT!!

I also noticed that people were hitting the side of the dome again! God I love that. BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM! I could hear it through the television speakers at the bar, it was awesome. So someone needs to bring a gong hammer, and really go to town.

Re: Noise levels this weekend

It sucks out here in Northern California. Since all the local teams suck they act like football is over and have moved onto baseball. Hardly much playoff talk at all. I have the NFL package so have watched all the games, but I sure wish I was back in Louisiana feeling the local excitement with other Saints fans! Go crazy down there my friends. Drink some hurricanes and yell your heads off for all us who wish we could be there.
