They Were All Saying Boo-urns! Boo-urns!

I never got that joke. What does "Boo-urns" mean?

Ok , lets see here. Usually to boo someone has a negative connotation. While chanting someone one's name usually has a positive one. So Smithers is explaining to Mr. Burns that they were CHANTING "Boo - Urns" thereby making Mr. burns realize why he heard that distinctive BOO sound (negative) . Thereby making the joke seem that Burns is stupid enough to think that the crowd was just pronouncing his name different to fulfill a more positive interaction that Smithers wanted to convey to Burns.

I see. I thought it might be some sort of parody or cultural reference that I was missing.

That's only half of it. The other half is Moleman. As usual, he couldn't be more wrong.
