How loud will the "Oh" be during the National Anthem next week?

[FearTheRaven]

I was just sitting here wondering how loud it's gonna be and how awesome it's gonna be.

Damn I'm pumped.

Hope it's as loud as the AFCC

I think he may have forgotten one factor. Home WINS. M&T is in the TOP 5. They have us listed at #25.

I was actually thinking about this. I hope it's so loud that it scares whoever is singing the National Anthem

[FadeToBlack]

I too was ALSO thinking about this.

I hope it's blatantly obvious!

GO BALTIMORE.

this list was comical but it was 2 years old. Ravens at #25 the guy that wrote this piece must have only been to a handful of stadiums but then again it was bleacher report. I would like to hear what the decimal levels are at the bank when we play teams like the steelers or playoff games

[JoeinJax]

a couple things. Did anyone hear how loud the "Oh" was last night at the pro bowl.....yea didn't think so!
Also hasn't whoever is singing the National anthem come out and said she was going to do a remix? I hope it doesn't ruin the "Oh" chant.

All I know is I'll be screaming it from my house as loud as I can. Maybe the sound travels to NO to help.

I remember it from the 1970's, when the Orioles had winning seasons every season. I'm pretty sure it was around the same time as Wild Bill Hagy was spelling out O R I O L E S from section 52(?). The glory days of the O's, because it's not just O, it's O's!

Win a free beer from a 49ers fan by betting they are going to sing a song about Baltimore's defence before the game. You can collect on that bet when they sing the National Anthem.

Genius. Thanx strange bru!

To those who do not know, and to bolster Strange Bru's arguement, the original title of the Star Spangled Banner is "Defence of Fort McHenry" .

I think it was a british seaman who when he saw his fellow british soldiers fleeing in disarray back from their failed attack...made this remark,"O MY! Why that loud boom made me shat myself".

Strange Bru....u da man

I didn't know people didn't know this.

BTW, how about the seven nation army chant in the 4th quarter at new England, I could clearly hear it. I think we're the only team that does that. That chant gets me pumped! How cool would it be to hear that at the super bowl, you know when " the hays in the barn". Man ooohh Man this going to be good! - Gonz

Atlanta fans were doing it too, several teams in different sports use it.

It's a soccer thing. I hate soccer and it makes me feel like I'm watching the world cup. Not a fan.

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but IIRC the "O!" started at Orioles games in the days of the late Wild Bill Hagy, who used to lead the "O-R-I-O-L-E-S-ORIOLES!" chant from Section 34 of Memorial Stadium. Folks took to shouting "O!" at the appropriate point in the National Anthem as if to begin the Orioles chant--and it was "O!", not "O's!"
