Love the Streisand effect. I had no idea there was footage of this cabbage patch chimp getting booed at the Olympics until they blocked it 😆

    In Canada we don't censor that sort of stuff so watching the CBC stream was funny. All applause then the couch pest showed up and the entire stadium mood changed. Americans truly don't realize they are jokes outside of their country.

    Like Israel at Eurovision. They had all the anti-booing on the streams, but some of it was still slipping through and Graham was like "I don't know what you can all hear at home, but this definitely an energetic reception" 😆
