And now you know why you need to always ignore all the fans.
I understand how all this could backfire, however, I found that this situation was overall a positive one. I enjoyed the brief interaction with those who smiled and even with the irate lady. I've been in the stands before and know what it feels like when you think you know it all. Then you become an actual referee and discover that you don't know half as much as you thought plus the angles are different.
