On a vacation? I do. On a trip where I won't be working that day? I do.

Don't judge other people's behaviour TOO much

(just kidding). I could care less what he said on the phone but he is upsetting dozens of other patrons who were quietly enjoying the game before his arrival. I started to intentionally cheer loudly during (and only during) the gentleman's call, as well as a couple other patrons. He got the hint by his 3rd phone calls and moved to a different area of the MLL. PS: if your margin on your deal was $400,000 and you were recently at a MLL bragging about the deal - that was you on the phone; and me and the gentleman on the other side of you had a good laugh at your expense after you left.
Awesome!
