In fairness that is true for the football games too, it was one of the reasons I decided not to renew by season tickets a few years ago. I was fed up of game after game of constantly standing to let people in/out of the row and having the view blocked with people coming and going throughout the game. What annoyed me more were the people who would arrive up to 10/15 minutes late and then also leave 10 minutes before the half to get drinks, this would be repeated in the 2nd too. If you want a drink to watch a game then stay at home or go to a pub.
Back in the good old days when I started going to the footy people (I mean lots of people) would pee against the back wall on the South Terrace at half time and it'd flow slowly down the steps around everyone's feet.
I just thought it was all normal!

What sort of job do you do that you need to preserve your voice for the following day? Town Crier?
Do rugby fans have to get their missus to phone into work on the Monday, to explain that the Oul Fella won't be in the office today, because he partook of a couple too many choruses of FOA yesterday?
Worst. Excuse. Ever.
Good luck with that one:

More alcohol is the solution, apparently: https://www.rte.ie/sport/rugby/2024/...no-harm-doris/
