Group of Chiefs fans wants to turn up volume at Arrowhead
Loudest stadium in Seattle? Not if a group of Chiefs fans has anything to say about it.
Congregating in a newly formed Facebook group dubbed Terrorhead Returns, the fast-growing cadre of red-and-yellow-clad fans is hoping to counter a group of Seahawks backers who are attempting to get CenturyLink Field into the Guinness Book of Records as the loudest stadium on Earth. Quoting from the Terrorhead Returns page: “We have submitted an application with Guiness (sic) World Book and will request the permission from the Kansas City Chiefs and the NFL to be given a fair chance to put the record where it is truly deserved. Join in Chiefs Fans! GO CHIEFS!!!” So far, the Seattle contingent, which goes by the handle “Volume 12” (an homage to the team’s “12th Man” legacy of fan support), is a step ahead of KC’s. According to a post on NFL.com, the Seattle group announced on its own Facebook page that its application to have the decibels measured at the Seahawks’ Sept. 15 Sunday Night Football showdown with the San Francisco 49ers has formally been accepted by Guinness. The official entry would be dubbed “loudest crowd roar at a sports stadium.” A website in Seattle, SeattlePI.com, reports that the current record is held by the Ali Sami Yen Sport Complex Turk Telekom Arena in Istanbul, Turkey. The decibels measured that day? An ear-splitting 131.76, or slightly louder than the sound of an airliner at takeoff. The Turkish fans were cheering on a soccer match played by Galatasaray S.K. Size of the venue could factor into Seattle’s Sept. 15 bid: NFL.com reports that the highest decibels recorded at the so-called CLink peaked at 112, but notes that the Seahawks’ home digs hold 67,000, or 14,000more than the Turkish stadium. If size matters, and if Terrorhead Returns can get a date with Guinness — and if Chiefs fans can fill it to capacity — Arrowhead could play a huge factor in a record bid. The venerable Truman Sports Complex venue holds 79,451, or more than 12,000 more than CenturyLink Field. But Terrorhead Returns, though just launched Friday, has ground to make up in terms of likes on its Facebook page. As of 8 p.m. Tuesday, it had 1,830 members compared with 6,263 likes for Volume 12.

I thought soccer stadiums were just a quiet place to take a nap.

And I am a reerun and a moron because I think it is cool that these "REAL FANS' "Homers" are posting pics of the glory days and want to support a team they love. And so what if they are "manufacturing" something to maybe break a record to bring back some honor to Arrowhead- what the **** is it to you? What makes your opinion so high and mighty you can judge them? Right now Arrowhead is more know for empty seats and a player killing himself in the parking lot. If it brings some positive attention to the team and helps some charities- nobody really gives a shit if Dave approves or not? |

And for the record I don't like the name or the shirts either- but it is what it is. But I do like they are standing up and trying to something positive for a team that needs it after last year. |

In thread after thread you post negative stuff but then speak up your going to a game-why if you think Alex is going to suck so bad? You seem confused- you want to have hope for this year, but yet you want to fit in with your cronies like Sweet pimp daddy and bash every move like nothing has been done to fix last years historically horrible team. I don't get? So keep up with your name calling because I like Alex and think we are going to be great this year. I will be out there with the rest of the Homers trying to restore some pride to Arrowhead and supporting a team that has let me down many times- but has hopefully turned the corner. |

From being at Arrowhead throughout the 90's I appreciate the passion and would love to see Arrowhead return to that greatness but have to agree with others that this is a bad idea coming off a 2-14 season and yes I believe it's going to be manufactured.
I say to hell with Seattle for now,let KC win some games,win fans back and then kick their ass for real!

But this thing is a run away train- they really do have their heart in the right place no matter how misguided it seems. If I thought it was Just for publicity- I wouldn't have joined. These guys are bleeding red for their team and I respect it. |

Its a lil to late in ballgame for that brother, all media,fans etc know Terrorhead. It is what it is, can't make everyone happy. What I care about is cause which I believe every fan should put arms around. Being proud of our history as Chiefs fans and rebuilding our repuation as Loudest/most passionate fans in NFL
