      The entire crowd singing the "Nana na na, hey hey, goodbye" song as their team crushes the opponent, particularly in hockey.

      I love the giant "f*** you!" message it sends to the other team!

        I allllmost picked roar of the crowd. Mostly because it's what you would hear after all three of the other choices... but it definitely depends on the size of the stadium and sport. For example, I get chills even when it's dead silent on the golf course or when the home team shoots free throws... so I can't really pick that because I enjoy dead silence too haha.

        So I went with "crack of the bat" because it's something that has suspense to it. Will it result in a home run? A base hit? Also grew up with the "ping" of aluminum bats so that's kinda cool to me.

          I say crack of the bat since that has the most get you out of your seat feel in a sporting event. Nothing gets you out of your seat like a Whap crack that echos all over the park and the parking lot.

          You could be outside of the stadium and be like "damn that ball was hit hard!!"

          I also love the sound of goals in hockey and soccer. Goooooaaaallll from the spanish anouncers is just epic. Plus the rangers goal horn and music is hot too.

            How do yall NOT vote for "Roar of the Crowd"?... whenever I did something meaningful in any sport (like swish a shot, or "crack" a hit, etc etc), the roar of the crowd was what pumped me up much more than anything.

            The roar of the crowd was that thing that gave me extra boost and energy after every play... I most definitely believe the "6th man" home-field advantage exists.

            The loudest a crowd ever roared for one of my sporting events actually happens to be a senior-faculty "speed ball" game... but you gotta remember that every student in the student body was crammed into the gym cheering on the seniors to beat the teachers... and I made this one goal after missing the first two by inches (the final score was us 4-2)... and the whole gym erupted. I was playing my heart out for it, just because the crowd was pumping me up... it's like this extra will in me sparked, and I couldn't control it.

              Because the roar of the crowd is the result of one of these great sounds to begin with. It doesn't ignite unless one of these take place, and normally it's that preceding event that makes something so exciting to "roar" over.

              I couldn't care less for the scoreboard asking for us to roar and then we begin roaring. Sure, it builds up the moment, but it's the moment that matters most. Once there is the crack of the bat, or the dribbling up court with 6 seconds left on the clock, or the passing on the final lap of the Indy 500, or the grunts and smashes before the Hail Mary to decide the end of a game... all of that is too exciting and gets us a real reason to cheer.

                You need to watch futbol if you think it takes an "exciting" play to get the crowd chanting. Futbol alone sets the crowd above every of the other sounds.

                  Well, I guess that's an exception (yeah, I watch it).

                  I'm guessing that game can be a bit different. Not much scoring, and a lot of midfield action. Otherwise the only cheering you would hear is during a breakaway, a goal, the build-up for a corner kick, or with a minute left in regulation. But those chants everywhere in between those moments are astronomical.

                    I should have written any non-organized sports game because obviously everything from Little League to HS has crowds. But when I'm playing pick-up games at the park there isn't a crowd and I still consider that sport. I guess I'm just looking at it more outside the box than others.

                      Hands down, futball fans going wild in the crowd. Nothing compares to it.
