I like how the English soccer leagues changed from a moment of silence to a moment of applause where everyone just cheers really loudly. Also gets rid of the chance of idiots yelling stupid shit because they know that everyone can hear them.

I feel like a moment of silence fits when someone dies tragically like Gaudreau brothers, but a moment of applause is when a legend dies in old age like Gordie Howe.

I get your point, but maybe a happy medium would work. A moment of silence to mourn, then a moment of cheering to celebrate their life.

I'm pretty sure that's like 90% of the reason they did it.

Why can’t people (everyone) shut up?

My FB memories gave me a clip I shit at a concert a decade ago. The band was playing a mini acoustic set, and extended one piece ent dropping it all the way down and turning off the PA. And people were just whooping and shouting and all manner of making themselves heard during the quiet.
