Hovering around 50 inside your home should be just about right. To get much below that, you'd need a windless desert. To drop even lower, you'd need to be in outer space

Hard to do. We have a roof. And our seats are very close to the field, even at the top decks. Sometimes I don't like the noise when we are on offense because our announcer does this "And that's another Houston Texans..." and the crowd answers, "FIRST DOWN!" Can't say I like when they do that because it jacks the crowd up and it can make it hard for the QB to hear the next play.

The concrete shaking effect is pretty cool. That happened a number of times in the last game.

I'll be in 134.

Loudest I've ever been in was 155db at an SEC school. My ears were ringing for hours after.

Wow. That's loud.

The last thing I went to where my ears were ringing for a good day or two afterwards was the Drive By Truckers show at tie 9:30 Club in DC. I wasn't even right in front of the speakers nor was I close to the stage since I had my wife with me, but for whatever reason my ears were ringing for days. I thought I had done permanent damage, haha.
