I was recently in Edinburgh, Scotland and was attending the Military Tattoo on Monday night, August 17th. The announcer/emcee was chatting up the thousands of people in stands before the show started. He was asking for folks (from certain areas of the world) to clap when he announced their home country. He called out many of the larger countries' names and the crowd from those countries responded with clapping, yelling, whistling and the sort. When he called out United States, the BOOs were louder than the clapping, whistling and so on. No other country was boo'd. It was quite disappointing to hear that. I PERSONALLY never met with any negativity while there for 2 1/2 weeks but it ended a great trip on a bit of a sour note...
