Was it just me or did it seem like ABC/ESPN was pipin in crowd noise at the start of the race and during the restarts? I noticed the same thing last week. Anyone else notice it? It sounded very fake, like what CBS does with the bird noises during their golf coverage.
 
I didn't notice but it wouldn't surprise me.

btw, who was that guy that sang the Anthem.
 
The only thing that I noticed was the mickey-mouse garbled bs when they transmitted ALL of the spotters, open-miked, during the restarts.

Yes, I ask about it a couple of times today. I didn't watch last week.
 
The crowd was NOT very loud today, we sat on the start/finish line. If they had loud cheering, I'm betting it was piped in...

Toryn Green of the rock band Fuel will sing the national anthem before Sunday's race. ... Mike Ford of Joe Gibbs Racing's No. 11 team earned a US$20000 ...

Amazing what a Google search can do.

The only time I've heard the crowd come in through the mics are at the plate tracks when the whole field is in a wad coming off turn 4 or after the race when the cars are shut off.
