I was at the game last Friday.
I learned about the chants.
They shout "GO NECKS GO" (a lot lighter than the chants that come from Celtic park on a Saturday afternoon).
Also, when an opposing player shoots and misses the annoucers screams "WHAT HAS HE GOT?" and the crowd scream back "NOTHIN'".

Totally biased. San Jose must have felt like a nostril hair in a spanish omellete.
However San Jose did beat us.
