    East side, Linden & Smithville- don't tell me you're from there too?

    I'm from a town called Piqua.

    We have a lot of teen pregnancy and Nascar fans.

    The people here are poor, fat, dumb, uneducated, lack of culture, and no real business in anyway.

      If more people would have been in the stands the excess sound would have been absorbed.

      I wuz dere too. Ya wanna talk about a waste of six hours of driving to see that s**t? Game, I mean. I agree the first down, third down crap has gotta stop. Ya think the average Browns fan is a total moron? Ditto, just put ball, and down and distance on the big screen. Speaking of the new screens- you can probably leave your binoculars at home now. I doubt it would much matter where you're sitting- personally, I could have happily watched the game on the boards.

      But- regarding the sound- can't say from where you were sitting- but from my seats- sideline lower deck, I hardly thought it was "loud". If you want to hear loud- head over to Kansas City for a Chiefs game. They have a speaker system over one of the end zones that's 1\2 the size of the new Browns scoreboards. & trust me, I don't have sensitive ears. I know what 110 db sounds like.

      Yeah- I have some audiophile tendencies- and I can tell you this fer sure- they were tweaking the sonic balance during the game. Of course, they did plenty of sound checks- in an empty stadium- but it's not the same. (Personally, I would have expected better from a 500,000 watt sound system, but I'm probably the one in 200 fans who can actually tell the difference.) Incidentally- as an audio geek- don't let the 1\2 million watts impress you. SPL (loudness) is logarithmic. It takes 10X the juice to double the volume, all things being equal. A 100k stadium system is only marginally louder than what a lot of guys are blasting out in their dorm rooms. Us audio geeks talk about "bright" and "dead" rooms. An empty stadium is "bright" with the sound bouncing off the chairs. Put 50,000 people in the stands, and us humans absorb all the high frequencies. The initial sonic balance was way too heavy on bass. Noticed in the 4th quarter they got the message, and started cranking up the treble.

          The improvements are top rate if you ask me, I especially love the new escalator at the east end. The new cheese steak stand looks to be one to try. That will be Thursday's dinner. They do need to make the down and distance easier to locate. Oh and the new entrance for season ticket holders only is cool.

            Here hear

            My eye sight isn't that bad and It was impossible to be sure if the Browns were 3rd and 16 or 3rd and 18. It seems that the main concern of the powers that be are advertising dollars. Could we take up a collection and replace one of the obnoxious flashing signs with a board showing stats like the big old black panel at Municipal Stadium.

            Please put me on the list to join any class action law suit for hearing damage caused by the loud annoying canned trash we were subjected to.

            I hate the artificial noise, the flashing high tech colored signs and the quality of the team at this time, in that order.

              I do agree with the down and yardage board concerns, but once I found it, it was fine. They could probably work it into the end zone somehow. For the most part the stadium looked good and I liked the improvements. The team....well that's a different story

                      Didnt go to the game but few questions. ive saw lots complaints on following things

                      Whats thoughts on the food this season?

                      saw lots complaints that getting into stadium took much longer any thoughts?

                      also biggest complaint seems be nobody like down and distance hopefully they fix that

                        Browns 149, I moved my seats this year to 141, and although I didn't notice speakers being too loud (but I'm not directly under them), I can say that 3rd down announcements repeatedly are nothing new. It was the same as last year and Browns were just as shitty at failing to stop the conversions. My wife and I often joke right after, "what down is it again?".

                        And sometimes I'm amused that the crowd gets excited for a "1st Down Browns" like it's a touchdown, because the frequency of happening is about the same of an average NFL team.

                        On a side note, it's going to take some getting used to viewing the game so near an endzone. I'm off a corner so it's still a side view somewhat, but I'm beginning to fear I'll miss my old seats even though they were upper deck.

                              Browns 149, I moved my seats this year to 141, and although I didn't notice speakers being too loud (but I'm not directly under them), I can say that 3rd down announcements repeatedly are nothing new. It was the same as last year and Browns were just as shitty at failing to stop the conversions. My wife and I often joke right after, "what down is it again?".

                              And sometimes I'm amused that the crowd gets excited for a "1st Down Browns" like it's a touchdown, because the frequency of happening is about the same of an average NFL team.

                              On a side note, it's going to take some getting used to viewing the game so near an endzone. I'm off a corner so it's still a side view somewhat, but I'm beginning to fear I'll miss my old seats even though they were upper deck.

                              I'm in 139, and you can watch the huge HDTV across the field when your view is obstructed. You'll like being closer to the action when it's on our side.
