Vegas is usually pretty bad. They're jaded as all hell. They get everything handed to them.

Anything outside Toronto, New York, or Philly I think that list is accurate if you add Chicago...always one of the hottest crowds. I guess a lot of wrestlers say the allstate arena is one of their favorite venues.

In defense of Memphis, I know complaints are mainly based on the Unforgiven PPV. I was there and let me say that, 1. The card wasn't exactly 5 star and 2. When the Orton/Cena match ended in DQ, that sucked all life out of Taker's entrance for the crowd because the crowd was awesome during the Orton/Cena match.

I agree with this man, I was there for that show. I was probably one of 4 people in the arena that night who marked for Tommy Dreamer.

Indy almost always has a very hot crowd, so not on this list.
Lots of California seems pretty dead.

Judging from what I've seen on TV most Monday nights, North Carolina sits on its hands until Flair comes out, then quickly goes back to sitting on its hands once he's gone.

I vote Anaheim for the news that ECW was coming back then ECW guys invaded last year. It was in May at some point. The moment was GREAT and they no-sold it.

I'll throw my hat in the voting for Minneapolis, MN crowds. They only cheer if it's a hometown guy- Mr. Perfect and Jesse Ventura back in the day (but not X-Pac)- and then only his entrance and exit. Almost nothing in between.
Oh, and in '05 Judgement Day was here, and one of the biggest pops of the night was when Heidenreich asked if someone in the audience would be his special friend.
That was really bad.

Yup...I was in the middle of Santino's entire family at Raw in Toronto in May. This was BEFORE his "heel" turn, mind you. Fun quote from Santino's dad, sitting right behind me, after the first time that Maria and Santino flirted: "I don't want my son with no GREEK!"

I hate the Atlanta crowd something fierce. I've never seen a Georgia crowd that I've liked. Oh, and Florida too (TNA and indy included).

That was really bad. Something that actually surprised me was that the JD crowd actually seemed to be into the Haas-Holly tag team, especially as that match went on. Maybe it was just due to it being the opener, and them wanting MNM to drop the titles though.

That was really bad. The Twin Cities is too used to old school wrestling (AWA, Backlund, etc.), so they probably don't adjust well to the entertainment side. And they also claim Flair as their own (NC is Flair country, but Flair was born in MN)

I'll always hold Tacoma, Washington as the standard for bad crowds. They killed Shane McMahon's WCW, after all. This man speaks more truth than he'll care to admit. When they came to the dome in 2006, the only thing that got a standing O was a 3 minute clip of Andre the Giant during commercials.

Boston is very hit or miss. Montreal and Toronto are always awesome. Canada, since 1997, has been great. Boston tends to be an excellent crowd, but if the show sucks they'll show the hate and indifference. Back in 2000, at the KOTR they hated the Patterson/Brisco crossdressing match and didn't respond at all - but when Crash hit the ring they erupted in cheers when he put an end to it. In Sept (or Oct) 2004 for a Smackdown taping they blew the roof off (I was there) for Cena's opening promo the night after he beat Booker for the US Title. But at the end of the night when Carlito beat him (in his debut match, for the title) the building went dead and walked out pretty quick.
