At one of the early WBB games this year, I was bothered by the artificial, non-fan support (P.A. system very loud, trying to do the cheering). Thankfully, I think that has been toned down as we get into the season. At the start of the Stanford-U$C game (in L.A.), I could hear the artificial support at their site. The attendance was just 612 (ouch).
I think that too much of that leads to a lack of participation by the fans. Just sit back and observe; why cheer the team when the P.A. is doing it so much more loudly. It has to feel weird to the players to have the P.A. so loud and the fans so quiet.
