I've been to the Den as an away fan but never as a home fan despite living a few miles away for the last 10 years or so
It's a bit different from Carrow Road. Smoking in the toilets/concourse/stands (which was incredibly unpleasant). Stewards turning a blind eye to pints in the stands. Free for all on the seating (don't know if this was just because it was a cup game and there was a reasonable amount of free seats). I think if I go again I'll have to sit in the family section.
Also there seemed to be a chant which just involved making white noise.
Don't they have a chant called the wall of noise or something, which is basically them shouting MEEEEEEL-WAUWWWWW non-stop?
Smoking in the toilets happens everywhere in my experience. To someone not addicted to nicotine I thought it was silly but to be fair it is two hours without a fag which since people simply cannot do! In Estonia they have similar non-smoking rules but in clubs etc they have these air conditioned smoking rooms where you can go to smoke. Seems like a good idea for places like stadia where you can't leave.
Being able to drink in view of the pitch is a great thing and the sooner it's allowed again the better.
