1. Circus Maximus is about racing your chariot, talking trash, and cheering for someone to flip when they make the roll.It is a tradition going back many many years. It is part of the joy and fun of the game. It is a high energy game. A loud game. Like Pit.That is why it used to be scheduled late as to not disrupt other games. Screaming does disrupt other games...but running it in the late evening had not caused any issues.
2. The circus maximus players are not being jerks. They are not trying to ruin other people's games. Sure it is disruptive hearing people scream flip flip flip every 10 minutes but they are just enjoying their game and were not told by a supervisor nor their GM to be quiet....in fact they are encouraged to taunt the person rolling to avoid flipping their chariot by chanting Flip. It is part of the game like shouting funny lines is part of rocky horror. It is part of the fun. They are not being jerks anymore than sports fans cheering a play or doing the wave.
That said.......Mike James will read this and deal with it since he is the minis supervisor.

Shane,
I see there a Circus Maximus game scheduled for Saturday. I would like to call your attention to the latest two games run. There is a ritual where the players of this game start chanting "Flip" at the top of their lungs. This is disruptive and rude. The hundreds of other people in the room are trying to play their games in peace must wait until these very rude people conduct a disruptive and absolutely unnecessary ritual. Please warn these jerks that if they can not conduct their game without interrupting everyone else that Circus Maximus can be removed from the schedule.
Your feedback and cooperation is welcome.
May the dice roll in your favor,Alfonzo
