Was it wishful thinking or was I hearing boos with the cheers?

(11,949 posts)That crowd is mainly upper middle class. They will pay whatever it takes. If my team ever made it there so would I. But since I went to UK, that will never happen.
And i heard a lot of boos as well as cheers.

(12,681 posts)To hear them at that volume in a domed stadium, it was about 35 - 40%.
You could hear the boos from the radio feed as well as the ESPN field only feed.
Spouse is listening to Eli Gold, doesn't want to hear ESPN announcers natter on.
