The more I think about these couple of incidents, the more they bother me. I just can't seem to find the right balance, and it bugs me.

You would have not been considered a rulebook official if you were using common sense. And the common sense thing was for them to stop. Because the minute they did this on a crucial situation, then the visiting team could and would complain and have a legitimate beef about the noise. I think your concern was not only right, but well thought out.

I think this was your only mistake. Because you know they are going to debate what they can do and are no responsible for the game. Game management is there to assist you directly in running the game. You should have stopped the game, then had Game management take care of the situation. If does not matter if the visiting team complains, but when they complains can cause much more problems in the long run.
