Out of the Blue

Congrats to the fans in Kansas City for setting a new record for loudest stadium crowd, breaking the coveted achievement by hitting 142.2 decibels last night. At least I guess it's coveted, though I'm glad I wasn't there to experience it, as 142 dB is between a trillion and a quadrillion times more powerful than the quietest sound the human ear can detect, and more than loud enough to cause hearing damage... if you feel bad that you missed out, you can recreate the experience by heading to the nearest military airbase and standing nearby with no ear protection while one of the jets takes off. Word is the Chiefs handed out 36,000 pairs of earplugs to the game's 76,000 attendees, so apparently they only hate around half their fans.
