What’s the Loudest NFL Stadium?
Contents
If you’re a fan of NFL football, you know that the game is often won or lost based on which team has the loudest stadium. But what exactly is the loudest NFL stadium? We did some research to find out.
Seattle Seahawks- CenturyLink Field
The Seattle Seahawks have the loudest stadium in the NFL, according to a recent study. The 12th Man, the nickname for the Seahawks’ fans, is responsible for creating an deafening atmosphere at CenturyLink Field, which was formally known as Qwest Field.
The study, conducted by the University of Washington, found that the Seahawks’ home games were significantly louder than any other NFL stadium. In fact, the decibel level at Seahawks games was so high that it actually broke the Guinness World Record for loudest crowd noise at an outdoor stadium.
So what makes CenturyLink Field so loud? There are a few factors that contribute to its deafening atmosphere. First of all, the stadium is designed in such a way that sound is amplified and carries throughout the stadium. Additionally, the 12th Man is known for being particularly rowdy and enthusiastic, which also contributes to the noise level.
If you’re looking for an exciting and loud NFL experience, Seattle is definitely the place to be.
New Orleans Saints- Mercedes-Benz Superdome
With a design that amplifies crowd noise, it’s no wonder the New Orleans Saints’ home turf, the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, is one of the loudest stadiums in the NFL. The domed roof and circular shape of the stadium work together to create a “bowl of noise,” according to Kevin Cusick of the Pioneer Press.
Kansas City Chiefs- Arrowhead Stadium
Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs, is widely considered to be the loudest stadium in the NFL. On September 29, 2014, the Chiefs set the Guinness World Record for the loudest crowd roar at an outdoor stadium, reaching 142.2 decibels.
Baltimore Ravens- M&T Bank Stadium
M&T Bank Stadium, home of the Baltimore Ravens, is widely considered to be the loudest stadium in the NFL. The record-setting noise level was set in December 2012 when the Ravens played the New York Giants and fans created a deafening 132.5 decibel roar.
Denver Broncos- Sports Authority Field at Mile High
Sports Authority Field at Mile High is an American football stadium in Denver, Colorado. It is the home field of the Denver Broncos of the National Football League (NFL). The stadium is named after sporting goods retailer Sports Authority. Opened in 2001, it is also the home of the Colorado Rapids soccer team, and from 2006 until 2013 it was the home of the Colorado Crush indoor football team.
