The old stadium was obviously really loud, and a really great home-field advantage, and that's something that you've heard now, that it's loud.

And I think just architecturally, the way that it was built, all the way 360 enclosed, and the canopy up top that covers the upper deck, I think rattles around the noise.

[crowd cheering] Now, the game that I went to last week against the Chargers, obviously there was a big chunk of that game that was not a lot to cheer for.

But early in the game, when there was some big plays and people were into it, and then also late in the game as the Bills came back and then won, you could hear the decibel levels rise.

And I thought, "Boy, this is significantly loud." This is louder than I thought it was gonna be, and I heard that it was gonna be loud.

So that was a huge thing, so I think the fact that it's fully enclosed, the canopy, but also that it's so steep.

And so I could see to my left that whole side of the upper deck, and it is really steep.
