6. I was there

And there there were both cheers and boos....Which was louder? Hard to say; probably depended on what the people sitting nearest to you were doing. The folks I was near were definitely not fans of Chimpy, but I think they (and to a certain degree I agree, although I did try to counter some of the cheering) that they didn't want to start out booing only to encourage more cheering....A couple of folks did carry a banner around the upper deck with an anti-bush message -- it triggered a bunch of booing by a group a couple of sections over from us, but some cheers from our section...
