The point is that in Sacramento, the land of free (as long as you don't
stand at track meets), she would have been ejected.

Typical ugly American, attempting to impose your ill-will on others and
spoil the party.

Life is not a dress rehearsal, Walt, be in it!

At the Opening Ceremony in Athens, there was a young Greek woman who
stood
up and danced EVERY time a new flag-bearer would enter the stadium. When
asked by the people behind her if she could cut back somewhat on her
enthusiasm, she just glared and continued doing her thing.

I'm all for spontaneous cheering and standing (I've done it many times
over
the years), but  common sense and courtesy have to come into play at
some
point
