Admittedly early in the 3rd when they started their run, it was quiet, but to say it was an embarrassment is way off. Our fans are loud, proud and they know what's going on in the game.

Go to a Falcons game if you want to see what an "embarrassment" looks like.

Nope but my wife was and at least a dozen of my friends who had season tickets said once we took the lead before the half the fans were totally out of it. That’s not including aquaintances .Didn’t get back into it until the 4th quarter. They thought the game was won and that was that.
Fans owe the team more than that. I only go to a couple of games per year and I’ll be happy to take their tickets if they think it’s just a time to socialize.

Well, it wasn't like that where I was sitting.

Then tell the people where youre sitting to tell the other people who are sitting Elsewhere to look toward your section as an example.
Point out the Decible meter and tell them to not stop until it tops 150.
Off topic a little but at one point the loudest game in the dome was right over 122 decibels. I don’t know if it’s measured on the field or what but your standard gas generator clocks in at around 75 decibels at 20 feet. Could you imagine communicating to your offense with a generator on each side of you. It would be insane.
