"Packed to the rafters" có từ rafthers là nóc nhà -> cụm từ này nghĩa là đầy ự, không còn chỗ trống.

Ví dụ
Rome may boast (ba hoa) its walking tours of catacombs (hầm rượu) and crypts (hầm mộ) packed to the rafters with skeletal remains, while Salem, Massachusetts, in the United States is a magnet for tourists checking out its witch trials sites.

But there was no auditorium (thính phòng) packed to the rafters with cheering supporters. Nor did balloons fall from the ceiling in celebration, although there were fireworks outside and flashing car emergency lights, truly making it “the unconventional convention.” 

Few places in the world can match the passion for football held by fans in Indonesia, where stadiums are regularly packed to the rafters to cheer (cổ vũ) on the Southeast Asian country's top sides.
