In some competitions that require great concentration, some athletes felt wronged by boos. The jumper French stick, Renaud Lavillenie, felt humiliation.
Posnanski reminded that Brazilians manifested in the same way against their national soccer team after draws sequence scoreless with South Africa and Iraq.

"One thing to ask people to stop and the other is to change habits and nature. I remember when I watched a baseball game in Japan. It was just different. Even sport I know all my life, but the fans were so different they applauded at times that were not usual, sang songs of nothing and were completely silent when I expected raucous applause, "Posnanski wrote.
He ends the article commenting that, despite the criticisms, it is important to remember that the particular way of twisting in each country can also irritate people from other nations.
