Of course I tweet and call a violation...coach goes off (he had obviously done this before) and says its within the confines of throw in rules. I just told him to have a seat and enjoy the game.
What is your ruling?

That was a topic of a thread here a few years ago. The consensus was that the thrower could back up
to the stands, but climbing
into the stands gave him an unfair advantage not intended under the rules.
