That type of support is great, but it's over the line when a fanbase actively boos another country's national anthem, be it Mexico's anthem, the US's... whatever. That's just stupid and ignorant.

And like I said before, I'm American, but I'm not that patriotic, normally I could care less about stuff like this. But it's just a dumb thing to do in general.
