My throat hurts!

That must be a good sign! I can hardly wait to hear how loud it was on TV, it seems like people were just going NUTS! Besides people behind us bitching for us to sit down it was a great game (we of course, didn't sit down.)

The Cowboys fans got quiet quick. Most amazing game I've ever been to!

One question: as we were exiting the stadium fireworks were going off. Was this a fan thing or a FexEX thing. They looked to be coming from the church by the red lot, and they were mainly in blue and gold colors. (I remember one red) which seemed kinda odd. Anyhow!

I just wanted to talk about how great of an experience it was and wasnt sure where to do it!

It was a fan thing, I believe. I've never seen parking lot fireworks before - but I hope to see them again.

The fireworks were a nice touch...

My voice still isn't back to normal, and I don't expect it to be until Thursday or so. I was in Section 452, and any time a Cowboys fan got up to walk down towards the concourse, the fans chanted "Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye". Hilarious. In the 4th quarter, a scuffle broke out between a cowboys fan and about 4 or 5 Skins fan...no punches were thrown, but the cowboys fan fell about 4 rows and left.

I went to probably 5 or so games at RFK, and had only been to FedEx twice prior to yesterday (one Preseason game), and by far, yesterday was my best gameday experience. An electric crowd and a 28 point victory...the only thing sweeter would have been not losing Randy Thomas, and a shutout.

The crowd definitely translated well to TV... it was loud as hell and all the chants were very clear.

So, so close calling in sick to work today. I am sore as hell! Starting tailgating at noon, barely sat down during the game, screamed the entire time. Our section was pretty rocking 446, but it could have been better!

How about he Randy chants? that was great, we lost it when he gave that huge thumbs up ... good stuff man, but I'm paying for today!

bjschmonsees · 12-19-2005, 11:53 AM

The, "Da da da da da da da, hey, YOU SUCK!" chant was transcendent. It was ringing throughout the stadium the entire second half. What is really cool about it is that becasue the pa system prompts the fans, all corners of the stadium are in unison. That doesn't happen very often because of the delay caused by the speed of sound. It was the loudest coherent chant I have ever heard anywhere, and I've been to a thousand games of all kinds...

the joint was jumpin from start to finish.we need more of that great 12th man on saturday.great job by everyone who attended

BigSKINBauer · 12-19-2005, 12:12 PM

man when i was comming home with my friend i called my mom to tell her i was comming home and i was on the highway and she couldn't understand a word i was saying because my voice was shot. It was great. I only had about three groups cowboy fans in my area of 13 rows. The one closest to us were right behind us and it was a guy and his girl friend. He was pretty cool the entire game he kept on say what is going on? and i loved the look on his face after every sack.

DAL fans are complaining of throat irritation too. The initial prognosis is believed to be of repeated sucking of burgundy and gold snausages (clean version).

HAA lol. HAAAA

Cowboys= our bitch

BDBohnzie · 12-19-2005, 01:20 PM

one of my highlights...being in the men's room at halftime and having the entire place just harrassing the hell out of the lone Cowboys fan in there. unfortunately for him, he was in front of my buddy in line, and he started the brunt of the harrassment.

my buddy and i were in line at the half grabbing a few beers and some pretzels, when he went back to see Betts score his TD. when he came back around the corner, he screamed woo hoo. I had to ask him if he was going thru puberty because his voice was shot...and mine still is. Just glad I don't have to answer the phones much today!

I'm sorry - I was confused by the thread title. I thought this would be a good thread to give a detailed description of my rondevous with Lenny P.

I've got to go gargle with saltwater...
My bad,
