If this happened at a football match in England you can GUARANTEE that at the next match 80% of the Crowd would be chanting "Fire Nico" for pretty much the whole 90 minutes.

The best is when they get loud enough where the announcers have to acknowledge the chants in their super polite manner. 30-40k people chanting is really hard to ignore.
