---%iuM"lBtrlttmtlEE._lll-gtV. It was super to see University of Waterloo basketha“ Warriors capture their prestigious Naismith Classic on home ground last weekend. - _ - _. It was not super. however, to hear and see some or the antics of the fans. UW basketball fans are the best in the business. They are learned, appreciative of spectacular plays regardless of who executes them, and over the years have gained a reputation unmatched by any in this area. In fact, the way they rally behind Warriors year after year represents one of the few glimmers of hope that amateur sport can still be spectator-supported locally. But in the last year or so. the UW throng has been given to showboating somewhat to get attention. There's nothing wrong with that - as long as it stays within the bounds of sportsmanship. Lately it hasn't. It was bad enough when the crowd started jiving opposing foul shooters by counting one, two, three as they bounced the ball at the free throw line. That's akin to yelling "boo" to a golfing partner when he's hunched over a crucial putt. But things have deteriorated even further this year. Now the counting is followed by a hissing in unison in further attempt to. shake the p1ayer's concentration - and that's dirty pool. There’s always some jerk at any game willing to break the expected silence, but for the entire crowd to participate in a premeditated gesture shows a decided lack of class.
