Default Loudest Super Bowl Fans

I've been fortunate enough to attend the last five SBs (as a guest of my wife's company, Riddell). There have been 10 different teams in the Big Game during that time. Here is my ranking of the teams with the loudest, most impactful fans:

1) Seattle (by FAR the loudest. Manning could not hear anything)
2) Pittsburgh (were getting killed by GB, but fans would not let them quit)
3) NY Giants (had the Lukas Oil Field rockin)
4) Green Bay (nicest fans)
5) New England (Bawston loud)
6) New Orleans (very very very intoxicated)
7) Ravens (the smuggest fans)
8) San Fran (classy but not very loud)
9) Indy (polite and quiet, Payton had them trained to be librarians when the offense took the field)
10) Denver (Out of it after the first snap sailed over Manning's head)

Best Super Bowl venues:

1) New Orleans (by far the most fun)
2) Dallas (amazing stadium)
3) Indy (really well organized)
4) Miami (watching the Who play halftime was cool)
5) NYC (transportation debacles everywhere)

Could be the best matchup yet this year!

Cheers,

Otis

The Seattle observation is interesting to me. Went to SB XL in Detroit and I realize the proximity to Pittsburgh but Seattle fans were nonexistent. There were no Seahawks fans anywhere. There were a couple thousand at the game but hardly any around town. The band wagon has really filled over the last decade.

Lucas Oil for the Giants. Are you sure that it wasn't filled with Patriot hating Colts fans?

Things heard from a 12 year old at the game. "I hate you Brady. I hope you die!"

Haha! It's definitely possible! Although, it seemed like the entire city of Indy had volunteered with logistics.

3kings: The Seattle fans have clicked it up several notches since the 2001 bowl. The only louder stadium I've heard is Buffalo when they came back to beat the Oliers with Frank Reich at QB.

Cheers,

Otis
