What would get fans going more?

Fewer Debbie Downer types who expect the roof to cave in the moment something doesn't go right for the Vikings would be a start.

That's it!

We need to lower the ceiling. Guaranteed to make the dome louder.

GET LOUD!

If they had a catchy or unique chant to take part in, I think that would be much better encouragement than just telling them to yell randomnly. People embrace their team cheers, and rather quickly.

All it would take is a good idea from the lazy ass announcer blowing the horn, or a few awesome PP.Oers who are all on the same page. Once you can get the entire stadium doing it once, it sticks.

And why do people believe that a rhythmic chant will be louder than 64,000 fans screaming?

Agreed. No need for chants. It is louder when people are yelling and making random noises but it could be louder. We both know that there are way too many people just sitting there not making any noise when other teams are on offense.

They should also have a decibal meter that shows exactly how loud it is at all times. That would motivate some.

That is a really good idea.

...it also helps when fans do not leave the game early.

I do wish, however, that people would make some kind of noise while the play is being called in the huddle. Anything that disrupts the other team is good for our side. An extra second here, an extra second there could lead to the crucial mistake that turns the game in our favor.

Indeed.

I will be there.

Problem solved.

Bring in 10k 4 year olds and 1k toddlers that are hungry and haven't napped yet. I don't know about the cowboys, but it gets me rattled and off my game. Thankfully i only have one of each.

Although I'm actually opposed to the whole thunderstick and cowbell and drumset thing since I think it's annoying.. anything for a Vikes win.

If someone fly's me up there and gets me a ticket I promise to be the single loudest person at the game. hmy:
