There is a boat race commercial for Copelands that is played in the dome. It is PAINFULLY LOUD. I cover my ears when it is played, absolutely louder than the crowd. Bob Breck screaming at everyone is too loud, & the Ochsner commercials too

Hey Tom, how many people have died from overeating and the resultant high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, heart attacks, etc. Please spare me.

Not nearly as loud as the Ruth's Chris' sizzling butter commercials theyused to play each quarter. As for Bob Breck, I like his spots. At least he isn't trying to sell me something.
