Must be just your house shows, I liked all the ones I went to.
Every time I go to the Hammond Civic Center, I seem to get caught up cheering for people I don't normally like; the crowd just gets you so wrapped up in these guys. You get a true sense of who's over and who's popular.

I don't have a theory, but I do have a bad house show experience to share. I went to a WCW house show around 2000, Brian Knobbs fought somebody in one of WCWs Trashcore matches. The match itself lasted maybe ten minutes. Then Knobbs got on a mic and started trash talking (or so I think, the mic audio sucked) the crowd for nearly 30 minutes while they cleaned up the mess from the match. You guys unintentionally paid money to see Brian Knobbs babble for half an hour? I'd have demanded a refund.

I wish I had a videocamera at a house show I went to in which Tony Chimel stunned Finlay. I went to a house show where he stunned Kurt Angle.

I know. The one last year in Portland, Maine at the CCCC was terrible in quality and appearance!
But it looked spectacular back in 1994 for all the Superstars tapings of the time!

Last house show I went to was pretty bad. I mean, it was fun, but it wasn't anything special. Basically, all the big stars didn't show. Big Show had "quit" about a week before, Eddie decided not to come (this after the arena crew had set up the seating for him to drive his low-rider in), RVD didn't show to do promo appearances for Smackdown tapings the next night.
Three things I'll always remember about that house show
1) All the black wrestlers (OJ, DeVon) had black secuirty guards escort them to the ring, all the white wrestlers had white guys escort them to the ring.
2) Scotty 2 Hotty bouncing on the bottom rope waiting for a tag, falling and taking a spill to the outside, which caused everyone to break character to laugh their ass off.
3) Being "backstage" where we park the Zamboni talking to a friend who did secruity for the show and watching all the guys file out. They all looked so f***in' sad and depressed I couldn't even say hello to them, which is all I would have done. Instead, I just watched them file on by. In fairness, they did have like a 7 hour drive ahead of them before Smackdown tapings the next night, but stilll.

Screaming kids aren't just at house shows.
I was at the Royal Rumble this year and was smack dab in the middle of the screaming 10 year old section. Every time either Cena, Mysterio, or Jeff Hardy came out, my eardrums died a little.

I'll never forget the house show I went to where Miz pinned Cena five times in a row in a best of nine match, the last fall occuring in an arabian-revolving-door-skateboard-in-a-box-on-a-pole-on-a-pole-Chicken-coop-cage match with Keanu Reeves as Guest ref. Wish I had a camera. Damn.

I've never been to a WWE house show, but I did go to a local indy show and a friend and I were sitting behind a bunch of kids. One of them turned around and asked us to be quiet.
