It is considered one of the most hostile places to play in the National Football League. Qwest Field has earned the reputation for being the noisiest stadium in the NFL, as it consistently set high numbers of false starts and missed audibles committed by visiting teams. This ?Twelfth Man? advantage gives the home team, the Seattle Seahawks, homefield advantage, and the opposing team offensive nightmare. Observers point to the unique design of the stadium that channels the crowd noise into the field.

Located at downtown Seattle, Washington, Qwest Field is a multi-purpose stadium. It is the home of Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Sounders of Major League Soccer. Set against the backdrop of the snow-capped Olympic Mountains, this 67,000-seat stadium is a perfect venue for football sports and events such as concerts and public conferences.
