re: How do you think Tiger Stadium At Night will play on Saturday?

We're into our stadium and we're into ourselves as loud and crazy fans who can impact the game. It's part of our tradition. DWI.

I applaud you for that. I think it's awesome.

The atmosphere of a stadium and its fans absolutely can have an effect. Sadly, The Swamp isn't a feared place anymore these days, but I remember when it was. Some of the electric games we had... you'd come out with sore eardrums during the close games or rivalry games. Feel the stadium vibrate a little from all the decibels. And that sense of pride when you got so loud that it rattled the opposing quarterback and they had to burn a timeout or, better yet, got a delay of game (especially on 3rd down).

So what if fans want to feel like they're helping the team... because in instances like those, they are.

I'll step back out since I don't really have a dog in this fight. Just wanted to say I understand where the Tiger fans are coming from and I dig it.
