To me this includes the following:

The band playing Happy Trails to send off a losing opponent.

Willie showing emotion and humorously playing with opposing mascots and their likenesses.

Fans chanting "airball", "waiting...", "sit down", etc...in basketball.

Sandstorm to be played during key timeouts and not withheld as a childish punishment because some fans choose to cheer angry.

Fans shouting on key downs to disrupt the opponent's ability to communicate and coordinate.

Fans booing people and actions they disapprove of.

I'm for sportsmanship as much as the next guy. I applaud and encourage it to be shown regularly. But if you truly care about the fan experience you will recognize that not everyone's experience has to be painted exactly between the lines as you wish them to be portrayed.
