George Halas quotes about
When they boo you, you know they mean you.
San Francisco has always been my favorite booing city. I don't mean the people boo louder or longer, but there is a very special intimacy. When they boo you, you know they mean you. Music, that's what it is to me. One time in Kezar Stadium they gave me a standing boo.
Nobody whoever gave their best ever regretted it.
