I just watched a good few of these the other day when I popped the Best of Raw volume 1 tape in for some nostalgia. Man, you just don't see crowds that frenzied anymore.
The zamboni incident had the hottest fucking crowd I've ever seen. When JR says in the Austin vs McMahon tape that the people at the Joe Louis Arena said they'd never heard a crowd that loud before, I'm inclined to believe it wasn't WWF hyperbole at work.
