I posted this in the Club Level and it was recommended that I bring it to the Main... This team deserves a packed house on Sunday. We need to make the place rock like it hasn't all season. They deserve it. We have a chance to go to 5-4 and become a legit playoff contender. The past two seasons have left bad a bad taste in our mouths but that's over. This team is beginning to believe and turn the corner. Now we need to do our part. Like Sparano said today in the postgame PC - we're at 4-4 and we have a choice to make in which way we wanna go. They made a step today in making that choice. Now we the fans need to step up and do our part.
I hear that. I hate watching the game and seeing the place half-empty. This team deserves better. I wish I could be there but I'm stuck in NY amongst Bills and Jets fans.
IF YOU LIVE NEAR THE STADIUM AND HAVE TICKETS GO I'm in Delaware and I'd love to be there screaming my head off! At this point it's just not possible. To see the stadium half empty on game days drives me nuts. If it's empty next week at 4-4 after 8 games and a 1-15 previous season that's sad.
Like I posted in the Club, I'll be @ the Patriots game. Hope I get to feel what I felt after the come-back-from-behind win against Buffalo in 2005. If we crush them, I'll be ecstatic to watch the Patsies fans leaving the stadium in a hurry.
I will tell you something that i believe in 100 percent.. If our players come out to a three quarter filled stadium on sunday ITS GOING TO AFFECT THEIR PLAY. and not in a good way. Iam tellin ya''ll, i promise they are very aware of this subject. Do whatever you can do to hype the game...call the freakin radio sations and pump it up if you have to. We must change our own culture as a fanbase, to motivate a physical team, that we are, that plays with emotion, we need to get their early, get on our feet, and SCREAMMMMMM as loud as we can.
I'll tell you what though - the crowd at the Bills game was pretty loud. We need it like that times 10 on Sunday.
I think our fans deserve credit, we lost the raven game yet we still came back and filled the stadium moreson then the week before.
I wish I could so something but unfortunately Augusta, GA is a long way from Miami. Kudos to the fans who do go to the games b/c it seems like they make a lot of noise from where I'm sitting. On the subject of loud stadiums did anybody notice that the Denver fans made so much noise and commotion that the TV cameras would shake a little? That's impressive.
Give me the $$$ it will cost for 4 people and I will go. Dont want to sound like a punk but thats the truth for me.
I'm going with 5 rowdy, loud, and crazy dol-phans... I've gone to the Chargers and Bills game so I hope we continue my undefeated live game streak. I haven't decided where I'll be sitting though.. wherever I sit, I'll be making noise and pumping everyone up... at the charger game some guy told me to sit down on the goal line stand....... I won't be taking none of that at this game.
Bump!! Let's do this damn thing today!! I'm pumped already and it's only my second cup of coffee. If you're at the stadium today - I wanna hear you!! Go Dolphins!!
fans that are going: we've won 2 division games and beat several teams no one thought we had a chance at beating. this is a team that we're "supposed" to beat. BE THE 12TH MAN when they can't get it done, get it done for them.
Kudos to those who were there, did you happen to notice the 12th man? Not sure if you heard me, but I was bellowing from the west side of the Stadium, 25oo miles.
I watched the game on TV, cause I don't live in FL. Every shot of the stadium made me embarrassed. Too many orange seats!!!
i watched on a stream and so the atmoshere in the room was cool but the stands looked empty on most shots. on the 50 yard line was alright but spreading out it got worse. *would so go to a dolphins game if he lived in florida*
Best attended game of the season, and I was there. No offense, but I go to EVERY game, and I get tired of the "no one is there" comments. It was fantastic today, loud, fun, you name it.
I thought the turnout looked good today. Better than in past weeks. Kudos to all the south Floridians that went out to the game today. There will never be a scenario where you don't notice those bright orange seats.
Was in Orlando so couldn't go to game. Or watch. Had to listen on the car radio. Does anyone know the official attendance?
I'd also like to add that there were hardly any Seahawks fans there, as when we played the Bills and Jets, and even Chargers, there were lots more. So that makes Dolphins fans all the more present. I gave my seat to my sister-in-law because she is from Nicaragua and in town for the week, and a HUGE fan, I wanted her close to the field. I had to move all around all game because there were not the usual empty seats! At one point, I sat by a nice woman and man who wore Giants hats and plain orange shirts. They told me they are from NY, but love the spirit of the Dolphins, and since we're AFC, they bought out tickets for the rest of the year.
Amen!! The place was electric today and not as many empty seats. We did our part and help will the team to victory!!
It was an aswesome game! Alot of electricity all over the stadium. Very few seahawk fans, so most of the stadium was full of us, Dolphans! Hopefully more and more people show up and stop selling their tickets to opposing team fans! See you guys next week, Section 427! Go Dolphins!
was there..it was awesome alot of fans hang out in the hallway thing that they built...its got awesome bars and places to hang out hehe
Thanks for the info. Alls I'm sayin is that the aerial shots made the stadium look empty. I'm glad I was wrong.
There were empty seat up top, but not so many, especially compared to games where other teams fans showed up. I gave up my seat in the 100's, and I had to scramble all game to sit. It was electric, and HOT. I am olive skinned and sunburned, as it was so cool in the a.m. I didn't take my sunscreen. The crowd did get a bit complacent after the 14-0 jump but then came alive again.
Does anyone have any pics of the crowd? And when you guys say best attended game of season, does that include the Jets game?
I think this game was definatly the best attended game of the year. And when I say this I do mean dolphin fan attendance. There were maybe 7 seahawks fans in the stadium
they may not be selling out, but there are always a good fan base that are showing up....you can't expect a team with a record like last years to be selling out the stadium.
you can thank the fans that were there cheering there heads off for the false start penalty at the end of the game that made their 2 point conversion that much harder... 3 old timers (fin fans) asked me to sit down in the first quarter which kinda pissed me off...from then on we i was up screaming my face off on every 3rd down on defense... pisses me off that this was arguably our biggest game in 5 years...every game from here on out is our biggest game as far as I'm concerned...next week the raiders to go to 6-4 is monstrous...and then the pats to go to 7-4...my god it's right there fellas.
