You mean jumping.... but I see your point.
A long time season ticket holder here, I've sat in many parts of the dome. I only make it to 3 games a year now.

Opposing fans sometimes come and go crazy over nothing at all. They're just provoking people around them mostly. I've run into 49er and Bears fans in front of my seats that made hey over anything just start an argument or provoke trouble. What made them more annoying is they were in the lower deck on the 50 yard line, a place where there is no trouble. Awkward.

We usually kill them with kindness actually talking to them and buying them a beer. 90% of the time that works and they end up being cool. If that doesn't work and they continue to be a-holes, someone in the section always goes to section security/escorts who will come down and have a chat. If they go nuts, security escort them from the section in 2 seconds flat. Never fails. Upper deck is a little hairier and much less predictable, but fun nonetheless.

I celebrate 1 yard runs and smaller things with some claps and a "come on Saints." Never see me jump for joy unless it's 4 and 1 and we get the 1 yard we needed (and then it only when we win a game over that 1 yard.)

Yeah I go crazy if we make a 4th and 1. I wasn't upset at them as they seemed pretty cool and fandom. Just got a kick out of the lady not realizing that going backwards on a run play is a bad thing.

Well it was the Dolphins, maybe she was excited they actually got the play off without a delay flag or bad snap?

So now there's a protocol to enjoy games?
