[net.nlang] Something overheard from Sarajevo

Does anyone know what the crowd was cheering at the Winter Olympics ?
It sounded something like "gabba gabba".  A friend of mine was in Novi
Sad, Yugo in 1981 for the World Table Tennis Championships and heard the
same phrase, but assumed it was a nickname for Hungarian star Gabor Gergely.
Anybody got a clue? Anybody know what the heck I'm talking about?

thanks alot,
john
