YOU GONNA TAKE THAT SEAHAWKS FANS?!?!?! (Oh, also, KC is 6-0.)
Earlier this year,the Seattle Seahawks set a Guinness World Record for loudest sports crowd, reaching 136.6 decibels in a game against the 49ers. The Kansas City Chiefs hoped to break that record at Arrowhead Stadium this Sunday against the Raiders, announcing a Guinness representative would be on hand for the game.
Their early attempts... well... came up a bit short.

Apparently, it got louder:
The latest crowd noise reading is 132.5 DB. Almost there! Louder! #LoudAndProud #Chiefs
