Because the fans are (mostly) adults?

Because none of us are close enough to Avdalas to advise him on any of it Should he block it out? Duh Should he recognize the large majority of Hokies are behind him? Of course Is every single person who booed a garbage person who shouldn't be allowed among society? Yes It isn't an either/or on whether Avdalas should use this for future interactions with equally dumb people...he absolutely should. People are going to be dumb at all levels of play. Does that mean it's ok for Hokie fans to boo a teenager? Of course not Does it mean theyre helping him? No...that's even dumber than booing
