Now I'm not spy, but I'm pretty sure that when you're spying you're not supposed to advertise what what you're doing so the whole world can see. 

Or maybe that's exactly what spies should be doing so that they're transparent and we can have an open discussion about what they're doing. But I think it's unlikely that any such operation would survive public scrutiny

Neither covert nor clandestine

If they'd wanted to be covert about going to the game behind their wives backs, they should have cut eye holes in those signs so they could use them to cover their faces while watching the game.

If they'd wanted to be clandestine about it, they shouldn't have brought those attention grabbing signs at all. Those signs are the only reason the cameras are pointed at them.
