Unsportsmanlike Conduct!

Yesterday I got to go to the Alpine Days Parade. The parade was filled with primary kids, cheerleaders and classic cars which everyone loved. However, there was one entry that was not gladly recieved. This particular entry happened to be the University of Utah cheerleaders and mascot. As the cheerleaders and mascot rolled by, the crowd "BOO'd" and one man went as far enough to get his water bottle and throw water on the mascot. Now most may be saying "well, you went to the University of Utah so you're biased." Bologna! It does not matter where I graduated from or where you graduated from. It's called common courtesy and being supportive of people. I thought the booing and derogatory comments were unneccesary and inappropriate and in a football game would be defined as unsportsmanlike conduct. That is all. Amen

Booing is unsportslike but unfortunately more common than is good. It is especially common between U of U and BYU which is a sad thing.
