Wow, it is very true that the times before were very rude and people had fun with very out of place things, instead now there are thousands of things with which we can be calm, as you say in your post, for example with a basketball game or just a soccer game, honestly I am very surprised with the things that were done in the old days, after all it was a little weird or at least for me to know that they did such events, I thought it was very cool what they did.
