Have I ever told you that your icon makes me laugh? Here in San Jose we get a HUGE Red Wings contingent when the Wings play here - the arena's almost half red! Anyway, they'll all get going with the "Let's Go Red Wings!" chant and in the clapping part, the Sharks fans all respond with "Red Wings Suck!"
It's HILARIOUS because it goes on and on and on - often with the fans of opposing teams sitting all together chanting it at one another, trying to out-noise-level the other team's fans. It must amuse the players - the organist doesn't even bother with music if a chant is going when play stops. Hee!
I've noticed that happens. It happens in Vancouver too, when I've gone for games up there. It's closer to a third of the place being in red but it is certainly a noticable amount of people. I've been screamed at for being a traitor. It's a fantastic amount of fun.
