The backstop is a great tool for doing that.

Not sure if this is what you are talking about, but one of the guys that trained me did this. A group of "fans" was riding him about his strike zone. He started gradually building up a nice little pile of dirt for the optimum moment. When he had the right amount of dirt - he was ready and waited for a called third strike. As he called it, he kicked the dirt with his back foot right at the crowd. It proved effective as they all got up and moved. Of course I would NEVER do something like that . . .
