Forfeiting is an extreme penalty, and should be used only as a last resort. This sounds like it was applicable to your sitch. A warning followed by a "T" oughta smarten 'em up. Hopefully, anyway.
I definitely like the taunting T as a better solution than considering a forfeit. You could definitely sell the showy play as a form of taunting. Good call.
