Decibel Levels

According to the meter of Fox TV that they showed during game the decibel level of sound was 102 dB. Super—where the match was played—is an enclosed structure and so the voice was even louder. In enclosed structure, the voice reflects after hitting the walls and thus produces louder sound.

Although Minnesota Vikings did not managed to win the match but however their players had managed the purple earplugs due to noise factor. The game that was tied in the fourth quarter with scores 28-28 went in favor of Saints who got victory in overtime with scores 31-28.

The decibel is actually a measure of sound pressure level that is expressed with symbol dB. The term dB is after the famous scientist Alexander Graham Bell who is the inventor of telephones.

The decibel level will be higher if the sound is higher. Normal conversation has 60 dB.
