(Some) Brazilian Fans Booed & Taunted Team USA

Some Brazilian beach volleyball fans are behaving badly – AGAIN!

In day 1 of beach volleyball, these “fans” were booing the Czech team and the athletes publicly criticized them saying “they are rude and don’t know how to act in a beach volleyball match”. The day after, they did the same thing with Team USA’s Lauren Fendrick and Brooke Sweat.

According to the DailyMail:

American volleyball players Lauren Fendrick and Brooke Sweat have been loudly booed and taunted with chants of ‘Zika!’ during an Olympic pool match in Rio on Sunday. Each time one of the duo served, the raucous crowd at Copacabana’s Beach Volleyball Arena cruelly attempted to put them off.

Lauren nor Brooke have said anything about the incident.

We wonder what these “fans” will do next. We have a feeling they are capable of doing more especially during the matches of their home teams.

Thoughts?
