Hockey Enthusiasts Potentially Demonstrate Their Top-Notch Loudness in the League
🔥 Get ready to feel the thunder, fellas! We're talking about the pulsating atmosphere at the Florida Panthers games these days, and boy, they've certainly come a long way.
Just a few years back, turning on a Panthers game meant staring at an ocean of vacant seats. Fast forward to today, though, and it's a different story. The Panthers are smack dab in the middle of their third consecutive Stanley Cup Final, leading the Edmonton Oilers 2-1. And let me tell you, the fans are absolutely going wild!
Game 3, held right here in South Florida, saw the crowd beating the Guinness World Record for the loudest crowd roar ever recorded at a sporting event[2], hitting a jaw-dropping 130.9 decibels[1] after Sam Bennett scored a goal during the second period[1]. That's louder than a jet engine, my friends!
To put things into perspective, the crowd noise was consistently ranging between 105 to 111 decibels throughout the game[1], which is already pretty intense. But when the goal went in, there was a serious spike, coming close to deafening levels of volume.
Let's be honest, with my 30th birthday approaching, my hearing isn't exactly what it used to be. I ain't taking any chances anymore. I've started carrying earplugs with me everywhere, whether it's a concert, an IndyCar race, or wrasslin' show[3].
If I'm ever heading down to South Florida for a Panthers game, I better remember to pack those earplugs, or else! 😈
