Appears we made a difference!

When I was watching the game I didn't think the crowd was very loud, guess I was too busy concentrating on other stuff. But when I went back and watched the game over I could definitely hear the crowd and it was very loud, the loudest I've heard FedEx.

"its good, but something's missing.... i think it needs more cow-bell."
;)
haha you can never have enough cowbell

that's one of my all-time favorite SNL skits

I agree that it sounded loudest I've heard it on TV, except maybe the one playoff game in '99. Great job to everyone that was there!!!
Also, it was very nice to see most of the club level seats filled for the entire game after seeing so much yellow the last couple years.
As for it not being close to the RFK level, my thought is to give it time. Just like the offense will take a while to really come together, the crowd has to get used to cheering a winning team again, and when the Skins are making their run for the playoffs later this year, I think it will be insane!!!

Apparently, the crowd noise was good enough.

I hope it gets even louder, 90K fans should pretty much deafen the opposing team. But they gotta be FANS.

RFK was a lot smaller, may have something to do with the noise. there are certainly more people at FedEx, its the biggest.

man they gotta hand out those yellow seat cushions again. you guys remember that game??? when it was raining yellow? that sends chills down my spine even today.

thnx for that link JoeR.

"It was the biggest crowd in the history of football in the NFL. Their fans were excited. [The noise] was a detriment to our offensive football team. I can't say anything other than that: It was loud." - Gruden

wow. only Gibbs' return to the Skins could make that history. thats impressive, there
should be more about that
