Those few games that get that loud won’t have any appreciable effect on hearing.

If every game over years and years were that loud then yes, some loss would be expected. But how many minutes over 100 decibels are we really exposed to? Not enough to damage hearing permanently in a noticeable way.

I'm pretty sure 250-lb bodies running full speed into one another are a bigger risk to player safety than crowd noise
