DON'T wear hat or whistle when off field
linger or discusds game with fans
wander off, stay togather

Every one of those items are 100% universal. Good list.
When I tell folks around here these things, many of them get a look of annoyance, as in, either those things are too much trouble to do, or they are ‘above’ doing those things.
But, these are the absolute proper ways to do things.
