I hadn't noticed that at Gymnastics. Is it possible they were cheering someone else on another apparatus at the same time?

That happens all the time at all the meets.

I remember hearing a huge collective gasp when Simone Biles grabbed the beam in that particular Apparatus final.

Nope. It was during the individual competition and the Brazilian was in contention for a medal and every time - Krusty Aug 17, 11:40 4
- the booing may have happened (and that would be weird) but there is literally always something else going on at the gym during a meet. -- nm - Diva Aug 17, 11:43 3
  - I wish I could link the video but there's no doubt it was directed at the gymnast. - Krusty Aug 17, 11:47 2
    - that's awful. -- nm - Diva Aug 17, 11:48 1
      - Yeah, it was upsetting and very much against the spirit of the games. -- nm - Krusty Aug 17, 11:49
