I wonder if the peanuts were from them trying to get others to sit down? This is getting to be a real problem. Heck, if everyone in front of me stands, I stand, only to have someone behind say, "sit down."
I don't exactly know the "etiquette" of being a sports fan in reality but it's pretty obvious to ME at least when and when NOT to stand:
When the Defense needs us to "Raise the Roof!"
Huge plays underway, ball in the air and big, fast guys racing for it!(not each and every K/O or Punt but that too would depend on the importance of the kicks I guess)
The end of the Half or Game when it's all on the line and the situation is critical!
Beyond that, you should keep your seat I would guess and just yell your head off.
Don't stand for each and every play whether we're on Offense or Defense! While each play is critical, too frequent standing for no apparent reason is obnoxious!
Stretching( at intervals where it's a TV time-out or some other break in the game and going for Brew or the elimination of same is also acceptable in the: "Dr. D's Game Etiquette Book of World Knowledge!"
