Now imagine going to summer nationals, or JOs, or any of other big circuit tournaments, and going near the saber section, where there's like 40+ consecutive bouts going on all at the same time, with each person yelling and screeching every 10 seconds. > Do they scream like this at practice? no > Do they practice the screaming? no Fencing really is a terrible spectator sport. Second probably only to bullseye target shooting without electronic targets lol.
