Audience boos Japanese champion at Shenzhen Figure Skating Cup awards ceremony; some refuse to stand for national anthem and demand refunds
On November 7, during the women's singles awards ceremony at the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating in Shenzhen, Japanese champion Mone Chiba was met with shouts of "get off" as she took the podium. Some audience members remained seated during the Japanese national anthem, and others shouted for refunds. Netizens later debated whether the commotion was triggered by perceived unfair scoring by the judges.
