I miss the atmosphere in the Corral in the 70s - if it was loud it was because the game was exciting. No stimulation required.

No goal songs. You could hear hecklers. Sometimes an organ. It was more than enough.

I definitely think the rep of the Dome being quiet has a lot to do with how constantly bombarded we are with noise. It’s impossible to fight it, so people just clam up.

They even try to pile noise on top of organically occurring crowd chants, which often causes people to stop chanting.

Totally agree that it’d be different if they just turned things off every so often…
