crowd roar
Fans' collective shout
Crowd roar is the sustained, thunderous sound produced by a large group of people cheering, shouting, or reacting simultaneously—typically at sporting events, concerts, or rallies.
The phrase captures both the volume and the collective quality of the noise: The crowd roar was deafening when the home team scored.
It suggests something primal and unified, distinct from applause or individual shouts.
