Why do people only chant names

Well, not really chanted per se, just yelled where everyone drags it out and your wife has to ask you why they're booing when something good just happened.

 

I mean, you never here dudes named "Dave" getting their name yelled in this matter and that would work great because it sounds like "Yay!"

 

Also, how do you spell "yay"? Is that right?

Good question, heh. Red Sox fans yell "Youk" when Youkilis does something, and it sounds like boo's.

 

And Packers fans yell 'Kuhn" when John Kuhn runs the ball. Sounds like boooooo!

Hell, somehow Steelers fans manage to make "Heath" sound like boos whenever Heath Miller the TE makes a catch.

For the same reason that the crowd only sings what I call "The Drunk Song" (Rock and Roll Part 2 by Gary Glitter). The words are simple enough for even the drunks to remember. :wacko:
