Fact Check: Crowd At Army/Navy Football Game Did NOT Shout 'Fuck Joe Biden' -- New Audio Was Dubbed In Subbed Audio

Did the crowd at the December 9, 2023, Army/Navy football game chant "Fuck Joe Biden"? No, that's not true: The cadets and midshipmen shouted no such thing. The original audio was removed and new audio was dubbed in.

The claim appeared in a post and video (archived here) published on Instagram by truth_seeker_speaker_ on December 9, 2023, under the title "BREAKING: Massive 'Fuck Joe Biden' chant breaks out at Army / Navy game." The post's caption said:

Let us know how you really feel 😂😂. They are not saying "Let's go Brandon" anymore.

This is what the post looked like on Instagram at the time of writing:
