Fortunately only about 1/4 -1/3 of the people jump up so it fizzles out real quick.

I didn't know it was wrong to do the wave while the offense was on the field.

1) Be loud when you should be loud:

When your team is on defense, it’s entirely acceptable and encouraged to be loud. You can’t intercept a pass or sack the quarterback, but, in the case of Lambeau Field in the winter, you can team up with the cold weather and make things difficult for the opposing team.

2) Be quiet when you should be quiet:

When your team has the ball–especially in a key situation–you should sit on your hands, put your vuvuzela away and hold your breath. When your quarterback has his arms to his side and palms to the ground, motioning for the crowd to be quiet, he’s not reenacting “Angels in the Outfield.” He wants you to be quiet.

I'm one who would never boo the team. I won't even boo opposing teams or players, I personally think it lacks class. The players hear when fans cheer, they also hear when the fans are quiet. Want to make a statement, don't make any noise, not much would get their attention more than 80,000 people not cheering and not making a noise.

On a side note, when I have been at games and the Packers are doing well, sometimes I just sit and listen to the crowd when the Pack makes a big play. Try it some time! The power of 70 thousand-plus fans screaming is something to behold! When you just take it in without yelling yourself, you really FEEL what the power of it is!

All kidding aside it sure seemed like the team responded to it though.
