7. I like this story. It reminds me of when I was in high school

and it was the norm at high school games for the cheer leading squads to go over and do a cheer for the other school's fans, which was generally reciprocated. Our band would also learn, and play, the other team's fight song for every game. Fans from both schools would applaud these performances.

I'm glad that this kind of sportsmanship seems to be getting resuscitated.
