It happens from time to time: sometimes, on broadcasts, the mics somehow pick up one fan over all the others, or maybe said fan is the guy who whistles the loudest at Vanderbilt games.
In this case, there was a fan during the Grand Canyon and Alabama March Madness game in the second round of the men’s NCAA tournament who was EXTREMELY loud … or this die-hard just happened to be way too close to the TBS microphone that was on.
Either way, for a stretch of the thrilling contest, there were A LOT of complaints. Here’s a roundup from X (formerly known as Twitter):

The Grand Canyon is one of the quietest places on Earth at night, registering just 10 decibels due to the lack of roads, birds and wind.
The loudest place on Earth is the mouth of the Grand Canyon fan stationed inches from the CBS microphone.

There’s an unfortunately placed microphone near a GCU screeching fan. And it’s……

No word on who it was, but it was a lot.
