Murphy really put himself on the line with the decision, and following his gut ended up being the right call. It would have been far safer for him to go for the field goal.

...remain anchored in place while bobbing up and down. Len seemed genuinely shocked at their warm reception--in the encore Marc remarked that they usually don't have to come out again because, "we're running out the back 'cause they're chasing us away." I don't necessarily blame these hostile crowds--what if you went to Britney Spears and got Wu-Tang?
