Levi's Stadium pics and info...

Take it for what it's worth, but Ted Robinson was on KNBR yesterday and is convinced something "extra" is going on at CLink for Seahawk games. He's called college games in that stadium, mostly Washington Huskies games, and it's nowhere near as loud as Seahawks games despite being filled to capacity with a bunch of rowdy students. From my experience, college students are louder and rowdier than an NFL fan base. It's not even close. Makes no sense why a bunch of middle-age Seahawk fans would be astronomically louder than any group of humans on the planet.

Yep, I posted the same thing the other day.

That's probably a pretty fair assumption. Although I think even today's crowd is probably no louder at its peak than most other stadiums. I think the difference is sustained sound. At this current time it's pretty much 95% of the crowd on all four downs starting from the huddle on their feet screaming. For most other stadiums, that appears to only happen consistently on third down and goal line plays.

Seahawk fans just yell louder...

Lol

No bro. They revolutionized when to cheer at appropriate times. This just occurred in 2012. Duh.

I kid you not, I was watching a Seahawk game last year (I forget who the opponent was) and they did a shot of the stands, about 5-10 people. They wanted to show how rowdy they were getting as the noise got louder. I counted one, maybe two fans actually screaming. The rest were talking to each other or just staring, lol.

Just search "Seahawk fans" in google images. It's a bunch of middle-age men in the stands. No way they are capable of producing that much noise on their own. They'd all rupture their rectums if they tried lol.

Why did this thread turn into seattle talk. Can it with that BS.

Let me go ahead and hijack this back to Levi's stadium talk...Anybody else feeling a bit underwhelmed by the end-zone logo? Especially with the lack of gold in the paint scheme?



Not sure if this is just a preseason paint scheme with the full paint scheme with gold going in for the regular season...something along the lines of this rendering:



Or I wonder if the end-zone will eventually look like this:

Yeah, what happened to this being a Niners Stadium pics and info thread?

All-red endzones are only for the postseason

Sorry if this is continuing the Seahawks discussion, but you have the demographics of these two fan bases flipped. Husky football has been around for decades longer than the Seahawks, and is definitely the team with the most history in the Seattle area. As a result, the fan base goes back many more generations, a tends to be quite a bit older (on average) than Seahawks fans. There are many sections at Husky Stadium where you'll get yelled at by the older season ticket holders if you dare stand during a big play and block their view. Sure, they usually have a decent sized student section, but it is tiny in comparison to the middle-aged wine and cheese crowd that goes to Husky games with their seat cushions in hand.

At Seahawks games, the environment and culture are completely different. As someone else said above, you are expected to on your feet and yelling throughout the game (except when the offense is on the field). The noise is real because almost everyone in the stadium participates to make it happen, old people, young people, everyone. Of course the acoustics of the stadium help out, too. But if you rather believe a conspiracy theory about piped in noise, by all means...

Preseason.

Also, that last pick is the endzone in the playoffs. That and the last game at Candlestick are the only time they paint the endzone red.

I'm sure they'll have more on the field when the real games start...like the Inaugural Season logo. They had the Candlestick logo last year.

It looks decent to me. Very clean look. If the font is colored red, I prefer the endzone to be green. Agree there should be more gold in paint scheme.

I just don't like the font itself. We moved back to the old-school quentin font last year for the closing of Candlestick. Should have moved to it full-time:

Cool story, bro. I've been advised not to hijack the thread on this topic. Post that in the NFL Talk sub-forum if you want to talk about it.

endzones need to be gold 49ers with red background for the playoffs...idc about the font

The Quentin font is the best.
