  • No better atmosphere to watch a football game in than the Dawg Pound!
  • I'm born and live in California. But I LOVE THE BROWNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • go browns all the way
  • Even though it wasn't the snazziest place to look at and most of the sightlines were pretty poor, the old stadium's atmosphere has very seldom been matched at the new place. The place was absolutely electric....maybe because the crowd seemed a lot more blue collar as opposed to yuppieville back in those days or maybe just because the Browns could field a decent team somewhat consistantly. At any rate this new place is great to look at, but just won't live up to it's predecessor until the Browns can put and keep a decent product on the field.
