I have absolutely no problem with cheering during awards, it really makes the winning team feel good, and is the right thing to do.
<RANT> However, standing up during matches really gets on my nerves. It makes it much harder for the team behind to see what's going on and so they have to stand up, then the ones behind them. Often I've had trouble seeing our own robot's matches when people in front of me stood up and/or held big signs. It's just like a movie at the theatre, you wouldn't want someone standing up during your favorite part would you? Standing up for a short time to cheer in a match is fine as long as you sit down quickly, but if the person behind you is missing seeing the robot they've toiled over for six long weeks perform, then it isn't fair to them. </RANT>
