Just watched a kid win his 4th state title in Iowa. There wasn’t a single fan in the entire arena that wasn’t standing up cheering for him. That’s a far cry from the way South Dakota wrestling fans have reacted in the past. Watching and listening to adults boo a high school kid just blows my mind. If you want your wrestlers and programs to be the ones who are having success then they need to put in the time and work.

Can’t agree more, the amount of boos to history being made at past state tournaments is pretty ridiculous.

I don’t think people boo for no reason. They boo because of the attitude and sportsmanship they see showcased all year.

They boo because of JEALOUSY, jealous of the work ethic and sacrifices one most make to stand on top of the podium….  Built not Born

they most definitely boo because of jealousy. A kid being excited about his success is definitely not poor sportsmanship.

Where’s all the Boo birds?

Even worse is when they cheer if an athlete is hurt.  I seen it when Isaac Klinkhammer had blown both knees. It was disgusting.

Yesterday was a bit appalling for poor sportsmanship as well.  Folks need to do better.

I was on the other end with the Bs.   Who was Watertown cheering for after a injury?

Quote from Titan on February 26, 2023, 10:21 pm

Jealousy, go back and watch.  My opinion it’s pretty classy when a kid points to his crowd and gets the fans into it, nothing wrong with that
