Fake Crowd noise


ellioso

Recommended Posts

I heard it at the giants game as well and have heard it in games passed. Since I sit everywhere in the stadium cause I am an unlucky ebay buyer. I sat about 13 rows in the upper deck in the Giants game and I have sat in the top row as well and have heard it alot. It started 2 years ago when we made our run into the playoffs they did it during the Cowboys and Giants game.

I can 100% guarantee that there never has or will be any fake crowd noise coming from the FedExField speakers.

Well guess what....your guarantee is worth absolutely nothing. There has most certainly been crowd noise pumped through those speakers. It is impossible to miss if you're sitting in certain sections. I really don't see how this can be debatable. If you ever heard it and weren't legally deaf, there's no way you could explain it otherwise. The sound is distinctive and abruptly starts and stops. It's also at a different pitch than the regular crowd noise. It sounds like a few thousand teenage girls shrieking over some boy band.

Just because you've never heard it doesn't mean it isn't there. I sat in 217 last year and did not believe all the stories. This year in 431 it is very apparent.

so, in a sense, you are calling me 100% a liar!

as someone who fancies themselves a lover of all outdoor events (sporting, music, etc.) it was, in fact, fake crowd noise. sounded like someone bought a CD from www.fakecrowdnoise.com

now if they are using it to get fans yelling (which i feel was the effect) that is one thing, but if they were using it to distract the other team, we would have watergate.

First off, I am sure that every NFL team pumps fake crowd noise through their speakers. And we are no exception.

I don't get to go to many games but I was lucky enough to be there yesterday and the fake noise was pretty absurd. There was one point in the game when it was 3rd down and the teams were on the field ready to play and the stadium was going nuts. Then for some reason play was suspended (I don't remember exactly why) but the noise literally cut off. The people were still standing and screaming but the noise seriously cut off. I was looking around my section wondering what in the world happened but then I realized that we were just doing what every other smart team does (regardless of how legal it is ;)).

Well regardless, GO SKINS!!

For what its worth I'm a season ticket holder in section 451 and I heard the piped in noise several times last year and definitely last week vs. the Giants. Whoever ran the switchboard last week was definitely drunk and did a horrible job fading it in and out. This past week I didn't hear it. Which either meant they got a notice from the NFL to cease and desist or they started paying for a better sound guy... ;)

I just wonder why if we are cheating, why would a Redskin fan bring this up? I think it is just the noise from the crowd going through the mics. But getting back to my first sentance. Why on god green earth would you point something out that might effect the team you love? Do you think that Pats fans were out there yelling that BB was using a camera on the sideline. Do you think Oakland fans were out there saying that Romanoski{sp?} was using roids in a forum where everyone in the world could read it. If you consider yourself a fan of the Redskins I would hate to be your friend or even worse one of your dependants.
