  导出博客文章STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- The field rumbles as if a locomotive is approaching from
  the south tunnel. The stadium shakes once the first note of Zombie Nation hits.
  Players ears ring, their helmets sometimes vibrating, from a wall of
  noise.Welcome to Beaver Stadium during a White Out, an annual Penn State
  tradition where more than 100,000 fans dress in white and scream until they go
  hoarse.You couldnt hear the guy six inches next to you, remembered former
  Michigan center Jack Miller, who was on the sideline for the 2013 White Out. It
  was piercing loud, I think thats the best way to describe it.Added former Penn
  State linebacker Dan Connor, who spent six seasons in the NFL: Its really
  nothing Ive ever experienced before. You dont get that anywhere else. You cant
  emulate that environment, that type of noise and that type of energy. Its the
  loudest thing Ive ever heard.The Nittany Lions White Out has fast become one of
  the great spectacles in college football, an event that has inspired as many
  Penn State fans as it has copycats. Even Ohio State coach Urban Meyer named it
  one of the games top-five atmospheres -- and he should know. He twice has
  witnessed the White Out, in 2012 and 2014, and hell see it again Saturday night
  when the second-ranked Buckeyes visit Penn State (8 p.m. ET, ABC).Its a
  different kind of atmosphere. The White Out, it changes for the players -- the
  players can really see what kind of support they have behind them, Connor said.
  And I can only imagine a visiting teams player seeing 100,000 in all white
  filling up the stadium. Especially at night.This isnt a tradition steeped in
  years of planning and focus groups. Penn States White Out boasts humble
  beginnings, the spontaneous idea of an official who -- 12 years ago -- had no
  inkling this would grow into a Penn State phenomenon.Heres how it all
  happened:The BeginningGuido DElia can still remember staring up at a quiet
  student section in early September 2004, turning toward a marketing employee and
  asking aloud, You think we could get them to wear one color?His colleague, Loren
  Crispell, nodded.I just thought, how do you get people to act as one? said
  DElia, Penn State footballs former director of communications and branding. You
  put them in a uniform. We figured everyones got a white T-shirt -- so lets make
  it white.Those were the simple roots of the White Out, born away from offices
  and meeting rooms. But there was no time to waste. Penn State had only one
  remaining home game before late October -- on Oct. 9 against Purdue -- and the
  color-coded experiment might not work if students were forced to wear
  sweatshirts or winter jackets.This was a White Out involving only the students,
  but the marketing department had only two weeks to plan. Student email addresses
  were off-limits, and social media didnt really exist yet. Facebook remained in
  its infancy, and Twitter wouldnt even launch for another two years. Worse yet,
  DElia knew, if the White Out didnt succeed this time -- then it was probably
  dead forever. It was now or never.So the marketing department turned to
  essentially its only option -- guerilla marketing.I remember stuff on the White
  Out was all over the place, said Zack Mills, Penn States quarterback during the
  2004 season. I remember there being a hype around it. Everything they promoted
  that game week was all about the White Out. We had a pep rally that was all
  about the White Out. It was just over and over and over again.Some students
  would stand on street corners and shout about the White Out through megaphones.
  Others would paint their faces white and parade through the HUB-Robeson Center,
  a popular student hangout. Signs went up, chants were started and campus
  cafeterias were flooded with ads.It worked. Penn State fell to Purdue, 20-13,
  but the first White Out was a success. Mills called it a special atmosphere ...
  that was a little crazier than usual. Now, at least, thered be a second one.The
  EvolutionConnor played in 62 career NFL games and 44 college games. He was the
  nations top linebacker as a high schooler, a Bednarik Award-winner in college --
  and he coaches high school ball now.But Connor still cant forget the
  student-only White Out in 2005.Deep in Ohio State territory, near the student
  section, he could feel his head buzzing. It wasnt a sensation with which he was
  familiar. He tried to pinch his helmet near the ear for relief.The noise was
  actually vibrating through the facemask, Connor recalled earlier this week. My
  helmet was shaking. When you play at Penn State, its always loud -- but any of
  those White Out games, especially the night ones, it was a different level.Two
  miles away, in the campus West dorms, students who eschewed football for naps
  were forced to close their windows because of the noise. Ohio State center Doug
  Datish recalled, in 2006, how his ears were ringing from the all-white student
  section. Another Buckeyes offensive lineman, T.J. Downing, later told Penn
  States student newspaper that he couldnt hear Nick Mangold from two feet
  away.Its not fair to say the White Out was the sole reason for that noise level
  in 2005. Penn State was surging after several down years, and the Buckeyes
  arrived late in Happy Valley with a No. 6 national ranking. But its no stretch
  to say the White Out contributed to that environment, one in which ESPN analyst
  and Ohio State alum Kirk Herbstreit referred to Penn State as the best student
  section in the country -- theyre crazy.Penn State won that game, 17-10, as fans
  rushed the field and celebrated in the streets downtown. The White Out was a
  huge success -- and the athletic department clamored for a stadium-wide White
  Out the next season. DElia talked them out of it.We didnt have a game with the
  right weather and the right opponent, DElia said. I thought we had to wait --
  and I fought a heck of a battle to hold off on it in 06. I thought it needed to
  be a big game, nationally televised, with a full stadium to lock that in.In
  2007, the perfect game emerged: Sept. 8 against Notre Dame. The marketing
  department tapped into extra resources by printing out reminders on tickets,
  running commercials featuring an all-white bus driven by a man wearing an
  all-white uniform, and stationing white-clad employees -- armed with cowbells
  and bullhorns -- at each stadium exit the week before.Hours before kickoff
  against Notre Dame, DElia stood atop the press box with field glasses on that
  70-degree day, wondering and hoping if his plan would pay off. But as fans left
  their cars and streamed down Curtin Road, DElia could see only white.The White
  Out was here to stay.It was incredible, said Anthony Morelli, the quarterback in
  2007. I tell young kids all the time that if they can ever get out to a Penn
  State football game, get to a White Out.Its so loud, you can almost feel it.The
  NowNot much has changed from those early days.Players still need to crane their
  necks to hear their teammates, the crowd still dresses from head-to-toe in
  white, sometimes waving white pom-poms, and the atmosphere remains electric.
  But, as the White Out has grown, the marketing department has no longer needed
  to rely on commercials or guerilla tactics. Last seasons White Out even took
  place in late November.In some ways, Penn States White Out has grown as
  synonymous with Penn State as the Nittany Lion. Its evident every season, and
  its a tradition thats inextricably linked with the university.The White Out is
  one of the reasons why you come to Penn State, said cornerback Grant Haley, whos
  from Georgia. You can feel the ground shaking. ... When you see it, its just
  something like, it just catches the eye. Its unexplainable. Its unreal.Added
  running back Saquon Barkley: I lost my mind. It was amazing; I never had seen
  anything like that.The White Out has become one of Penn States biggest
  recruiting draws of the year. For fans, it routinely highlights the most
  exciting home game of the season. And, with the crowds, at least 107,418 have
  shown up for the last five such contests.Thats what makes Saturday nights White
  Out a little bit more different than the road venues Ohio State has faced
  before. A record-breaking 87,037 fans showed up in Oklahoma, and 81,541 packed
  Camp Randall. But Penn State will have at least 20,000 more on hand.I think Penn
  State has more people, Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett acknowledged earlier
  this week, and that can make it louder.In 2014, PennLive photographer Joe
  Hermitt measured the crowd volume at 111 decibels on his iPhone app. Thats just
  14 decibels away from when noise begins to cause literal pain.Whether its the
  loudest stadium or not, Penn State and its White Out have come a long way in the
  last 12 years -- from an on-field idea into an annual practice the school takes
  immense pride in.It was essentially an experiment in 2004 and, again, in 2007.
  Now?Its one of the most eye-catching traditions in all of college sports.
