I absolutely love going to games at Neyland, however, I do not feel that it is a loud stadium...especially for 106,000 fans. We, Tennessee Fans, always receive the compliment of gracious hosts from visiting fans, and creating a very welcome and friendly environment for visiting friends. I feel that while playing nice, we tend not to get as heated and as loud as 106,000 people should be able to get.I raised a point about the "Noise Rule" in an earlier thread. Do you guys really think that Vol fans were holding back before because of the rule? I doubt it. Vol fans will be as rabid, crazy, and loud as usual....I hope. I don't think that lifting the rule will change much in Neyland...unless we start bring a ton of "artificial" noise makers with us...which honestly I could do without. Let's stick to the ol' vocal chords and run the Bears out of k-ville! :yahoo:
Statman, even though not politically correct, you may have hit on something. Does anyone know the average age of our fans? I'm usually surrounded with octagenerians incapable of making a sound above a whisper except to grumble about how bad "Johnny" was done.I also want a loud crowd. Everyone needs to stand up and yell, even the old cenile cranks(listen up if your reading this). And don't tell me to sit down and be quiet just because you are too lazy to stand up to see.
