Sid was over all over the Northeast, big time in Philly and NY for years, not just in ECW.
Technically 911 wasn't over. It was Paul E.'s booking of 911, he came out and beat the shit out of anyone the crowd didn't like. How could they not cheer for him? You could've put anyone in that slot.
Which shows that ECW fans were as big a bunch of uber-marks as they liked to bitch about other fans being.

Or else that they could enjoy all aspects of wrestling, including big, two move stiffs, and weren't boreass "workrate" junkies.
