Read again - it was not even the umpire who mentioned the indiclickercounterpacifier. It was some random board member, who probably has absolutely no authority during a tourney. Love it when board members get involved during a game.
Reminds me of a PeeWee football game last year, where as we're setting up for the next play Ref and I (HL) hear the Linesman yell, "GET OFF THE FIELD!" We look over, and someone is approaching the referee from behind trying to tell us we are calling something wrong. Ref throws his flag, blows his whistle, and tells him again to get off the field. "But I'm a board member!" "No, sir. You are now an ejected fan. You need to leave the facility."
We actually had to get Field Admin (who, uncomfortably for him, actually reported to this Board Member in his real job) to remove him from the facility.
PS - I, too, feel like we have about 1/3 of the story here.
