A few years ago, had a high school announcer doing an over-excited, "cheerleader", play by play, as is often done in those summer pro-am games. Mentioned it to my partner, who was the referee, and a highly respected official, between the first and second periods. He seemed to think that we should just ignore it. I guess that he started listening to the announcer in the second period, because going into halftime he told the announcer to knock it off.

One memorable announcement that stuck in my mind, "How can she (visiting player) miss such an easy layup?".
