When Texas A&M renovates Kyle Field, it should not only expand the seating capacity to over 100,000, but also make an already loud stadium into an extremely loud stadium. Sam Torn is the co-chair of the stadium redevelopment committee, and he thinks it won't be loud enough unless people start soiling themselves:
"Our goal is, when an opposing team walks out on this field it is going to be so loud, it is going to be so intense, that literally someone is going to wet their pants."
Literally.
A cursory googling did not reveal a specific sound threshold at which people involuntarily wet themselves, but this doesn't seem like a science-backed, peer reviewed statement anyway. However, if the new Kyle Field really can force a football player to soil his britches just by being loud, I think we can safely look back and say that the project was money well spent.
I would like to think that the Aggie students could incorporate such an event into one of their chants. This may be a bit cumbersome, but I personally like the sound of "Saw Varsity's urine-soaked pants off." Okay, we'll work on it.
