Sounds like fun. That is part of the new stands down there, right?

Enclosed area on level 7 of the stadium in the “new” south end zone upgrade 9 years ago.

Have to say, CM laid some wood to Ryan today that warranted an ejection compared to what he got penalized for weeks 1 and 2.

Tom Brady’s lost to Blake Bortles, Matthew Stafford, Marcus Mariota, and Ryan Tannehill this year.

You were there last week, right?

Because they sounded very loud today. I don't doubt that the normal crowd is quieter now.

And the fans had something to cheer about yesterday too...

They've always been pretty quiet. I've been going to games since 1992, including County Stadium. I probably should have listed County Stadium as louder as well, in particular that finale against Atlanta.

The loudest game at Lambeau I can recall was the comeback reg. season win over SF in 1998. Three playoff games: 1995 win over ATL, 2004 loss to MN, and 2014 Divisional win over Dallas were all quieter, and quieter than other stadiums' regular season games.

Champions Club is awesome. First time there.

Lamb chops, jumbo shrimp, waugu beef brisket. Brats and hot dogs.

They have the tv feed running with the radio stream over the sounds system. We were as high as the lights on the bowl and looked right down the field from the south end zone.

Lookin' down at the peasants outside in the cold, damp bowl, I bet you were like, "The fact that I'm a-sitting here in this cozy box eating giant shrimps and Japanese cows is proof that God loves me more - and therefore I'm better - than them mobby peasants out there yonder."

Aren't you late for your waugu-flipping job?

Just spitballing, but what is the average age of the season ticket holder at lambeau?? Pretty old crowd I think. Not sure they got the gumption to scream and hoot like the youngins

pretty much, especially the regular season ticket holders. The Gold package weenies trend younger and more sober - probably because more of 'em have to drive longer distances to the game.

Nothing is like Buffalo though. That fan base is composed of devolved Morlocks.

Sorry nope, try again.

I always figured it was because you had to wear so many layers of clothes that it was hard to move, never mind clap or cheer. Then again, I've only made December games.

Part of the problem is that little of it is organic. NFL games are as loud between plays as TOs are during an NBA game with pretaped bologna.

It’s depressing.

I agree. The young 'uns don't realize that before about 1987-90 somewhere in there, there used be an organ playing at the stadiums. There was time between plays and at breaks where you could actually talk to the person next to you. The crowd noise was from fans, ad sometimes it got quite raucous. Especially great were Marquette (v. Notre Dame) and Bucks (v. Philly or Celtics) games at the old Arena. Badger hockey games used to be like this. Haven't been in a long while...

There are still the organic 'go pack go' cheers. Those are especially fun at the end of a resounding road victory when the home fans have left the building. My favorite was Thanksgiving 2007 at Ford Field.

I've only been to 6-8 games at Lambeau but none of them have been particularly loud. I've always blamed it on an older crowd who have been to games multiple times.

Loudest game I've been at by far was the divisional playoff at Dallas in Jan 17.
