I guess it's fan appreciation day. Nice!

I watched the game in a bar with the sound off and my ears were still ringing. Looked loud AF

Just rewatched the game on TSN. Kinda sucks how they muted the audio - didn't sound all that loud on TV.

Yet they'll always find a guy with a horn or some woman screaming for an entire game. Hey, at Molson Stadium TSN even pipes all the music & French PA announcements into our living room for our "enjoyment".

It was extremely loud last night at the end. Sad to hear that TSN muted the audio.

[Booch]

Yeah I rewatched it at home..was gonna say they did mute it..didnt sound nearly as loud  actually didnt sound loud at all but it was deafening if u were there.

You couldn't even here the in game announcer stuff over the TV either so they had to have toned down sound..wonder why as it really adds to the game experience on tv..stupid TSN

I'm sure rider putzes are probably saying that they are louder as it wasn't loud at IGF last night

It must be kinda weird for the ex-pat BC Lions players to hear loud, enthusiastic fans cheering them on.

[Eternal optimist]

I would actually prefer TSN mute it on TV - makes opposing quarterbacks like Trevor Harris or Johnny Manziel think it won't be that loud... which just means they're in some form unprepared from that perspective.

[Jacquie]

Would they need to mute it so the announcers can be heard when it’s that loud? Not that we want to actually hear Rod Black.

[do or die]

Oh it was loud.  Some classy responses from the players, here....

[max power]

Wasn't it a live mic game on Friday?  I'm guessing that might have something to do with it. Would be kind of pointless to have the live mics just being drowned out by the fans.

And am I the only one who gets absolutely nothing from the live mics?  I couldn't really care less to hear about 95% of what they pick up.

It wasn't.

Sounded loud to me on 680 CJOB (listened online since I can't get many of the games down here south of the border).

Thank you to who ever is posting the games on YouTube a day or two afterward (from this American fan).

I must say, those royals and gold helmets look just stunning on TV.

[Blueandgold]

Personally, even on TV, I love to hear a rocking crowd. I have no idea why TSN would want to mute that.

[do or die]

If anything, amplify it.   Or at least in Montreal, Toronto, and BC.

Maybe they can dub our crowd noise over the next Argos game to help them out.

I think that the Argos might get distracted by hearing cheers FOR them.

My family and I made our annual pilgrimage from Saskatchewan to Mecca– I mean IGF, to watch the Bombers. I can't say enough about how much fun we have each year. The atmosphere in the stadium was great on Friday and I think the players contribute to that by treating the fans really well. Before the game Streveller stood at the south end and played catch with a number of kids in the stands, Anthony Gaitor gave my son a signed hat that he will treasure and wear proudly. Of course, there were also a number of guys signing autographs and taking pictures with fans after the game. The first guy out there to meet the fans with a big smile on his face was Shayne Gauthier– same as when we visited last year. That the players and the organization go the extra mile makes our trip a highlight of our summer. More importantly it makes it easier to raise Bomber fans here in Saskatchewan. And winning doesn't hurt either!

Bite your tongue!

How would I know that Brandon Banks is nicknamed "Speedy B" if I didn't hear it 800 times per game?!

The people from SK give me a hard time for my MB roots and now you're going to give me a hard time for living in SK... life is hard and unjust!

Yes, but you would know this every morning as you look out the window with a tear gently rolling down your cheek.
