Bad attitudes in the showroom. Shows are fun, and should not be taken too seriously. You should be serious about your rabbits though. What do I mean by this?
The judge says something about your rabbit you don't agree with. Don't go around trash talking that the judge doesn't know what they're talking about, they're a utility judge not a fancy judge and so on. You don't become a judge by only knowing about one breed. You also have to know all judges interpret the standard differently, just like how I interpret the standard is different then how you may interpret it. Take the comments and apply them to your rabbits, if you don't agree you don't agree. Trashing the judge isn't going to change it.
A breeder brings a rabbit or two for sale to a show and you buy one and enter it in the show. Then it doesn't place well at all. Don't go talking trash about the breeder about how their rabbits are crud. You were the one who bought the rabbit, you had the opportunity to look it over and decide whether you wanted it or not. A breeder cannot guarantee the rabbit will place well and bashing the breeder is not going to help you any. This one is all on your head you made the decision and handed over the money.
Talking to the judge while they're judging a class is also a big no-no. If you have a question regarding how your rabbit placed talk to them after the class is over. Telling the judge which rabbits are yours is also another no no. Showing is supposed to be fair an unbiased.
Another thing that is upsetting to people at a show is joking about sabotaging or killing rabbits to get rid of your competition. Even if it is a joke, it's not funny to people who have put pretty much their entire lives into their rabbits. It's upsetting and mean.
Another thing is if you feel the need to threaten people to get your way, you're in the wrong hobby. Wrestling would be a much better fit for you.
