Even if he's authorized to carry a gun at all times, that doesn't mean that he has to be allowed on the bench. It's like earrings on players. Sure, you can leave 'em in, but then you can't play.
I'm not sure that I would like to have a firearm on the bench next to children, surrounded by people who may become impassioned by a hard fought or close game. It just doesn't seem like a good idea to me.
