What BBN said about it

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSeattle's 12s want their world record back. Kansas City's Arrowhead reached one hundred forty-two point two decibels, and Seattle's mark is one thirty-seven point six.

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistThat's four point six decibels. The Chiefs set theirs on a Monday night in September of twenty fourteen, against the Patriots.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorAnd the neat part is, Seattle tweeted congratulations back then.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThey said they were proud the NFL had the two loudest teams in the world. That's the nicest way to lose a record.

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistHere's what bothers me. Sports Illustrated says ESPN's Darren Rovell reported that the Chiefs' number came off a handheld Larson Davis meter.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorOne guy holding it?

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistOne guy, one gadget, a whole stadium screaming at him. Thank you for the support, Chip, but I'd like a second meter.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorLove it. Love all of it. I'd say a good two out of five stars for the sweet little man with the meter.
