Ram fans in St. Louis

[Merlin]

Well since I'm retiring to Missouri this summer I'll be one of you all pretty soon, drivin round with Rams gear on making some of the locals shake their heads.

Do you Missouri types ever get together and watch the games?

I never did get the three piece suits and ties on a coach.

A football field is not an office.

Yes we do what area are you retiring too

Do the Rams play on tv in STL? I miss the dome.

I'm one of many who never lived in LA or STL, but have been a Rams fan since forever. That said, the only home game I ever saw of the Rams was in the Lou back in 2001, and that place was ROCKIN'. Loudest crowd I've ever heard. Good place w/good people.

Looks like it's going to be Salem. Not final just yet but good chance.

I remember the pre-game vs the Vikings when they cut to Madden & Summerall and Madden's face you could see the shock at how loud the stadium and press booth was rockin. Don't know if they measured it but damn it must have been ear splitting in there.

Madden said the dome versus the Vikings in the 99 playoffs was the loudest he has ever heard a stadium.

I went to STL in 2002, yes after the bitter SB loss I wanted to see them in person.

It was so fucking loud it almost felt like it was effecting your equilibrium. And blurring your vision.

It was Week 2 versus the Giants.

I swear it was the loudest stadium I've been in for a football game, and outside of a playoff game or two when LeBron was with the Cavs on their way to the finals (I think his third year), and that's a domed venue with 20K people so it's smaller with a way lower roof and it felt as loud but I dunno. In that big stadium that amount of noise was noteworthy. Especially when the Giants were in the huddle and at the LOS on offense.

I've been to a a handful of games and many concerts in STL, DET, CLE, MILW, TAM, SWFL and other venues/games. Nothing has topped it.

Rams, Dodgers, Lakers, Kings for life.

Hmm, Imagine that....Rams,Dodgers,Lakers,Kings...I knew you had good taste

Yeah, it was like that when I went too. It was against the Panthers with about 66,000 people there. In less than two minutes, Faulk scores a 71 yard rushing TD, and it stayed loud the rest of the game. Never saw George Seifert look more sad (and it was glorious). 3 different RBs scored, Aeneas picked one off right in front of me and ran it back for a TD, and I saw the great Sir Isaac the Bruce score. Then, afterward, I went outside the Drury (where we stayed) and shook hands with several players as they were leaving. So it was a pretty great day.

Monday Night Football IN CLE when the Rams came to town was also loud.

But got quiet thanks to AWilliams.

I remember going to the Saints game in 1999. Loudest crowd I've ever heard.

 

[OC_Ram]

Amazing all the names I remember from thee old board. I recall the great Suh - Bradford debate ..... good times.

 

[Ramlock]

I lived in LA from 1960 to 1962

Then TULSA
Then Little Rock ever since ‘64

My Dad was a college friend of Eddie Meador

Eddie sent me a ball from the ‘69 team that I still own

Rams were closer to me in St Louis but I always felt they belonged in LA, where they were my heroes

I created the Suh or Bradford thread before the draft that year, tallying votes at the Ramstalk. I forget how many pages that thread was, but I spent a lot of time doing it and it was very fun. If memory serves, Bradford narrowly won out, although I voted for Suh myself.

 

[Big Game]

Here are a couple pics from our New Orleans trip to see the Rams. Despite the loss one of the best games i've seen in person. That stadium is loud and the fans our great true southern hospitality. Talked it up with a couple Saint fans and a guy bought me and my buddy a beer told us if we get back for the playoffs to sit with them again. Great weekend trip took the family ate good saw the sites truly enjoyable.

Weren't there about a hundred of them? They didn't exactly moderate that hole aside from getting rid of those who either argued with them or posted curse words.

I will say that even though the dome was only about half full during the game I went to (opening day of their last season in the Lou) it was still very loud. I really wish I could have gone to a game there during the GSOT years and when they weren't expected to be leaving. Also, the people we met there were all great and fun to hang with. I remember one particular server at the Embassy Suites where @Selassie I , @CGI_Ram , and our families were staying. She wore her Rams gear proudly and was a real kick.

Or for those calling Bernie M. a twit (or worse!) *raises hand

Yeah - ole bern bern didn't take criticism or even contrary views well. I've never seen a "professional" get their panties in a bunch as easily.
