You choose option 1: lie. I choose option 2. I say tomato, you say STFU.
Also, part of the consideration is that when I sit in the stands to watch a game, I am almost never just sitting with fans that I don't know. I'm with other refs or with friends. So I find it harder to lie to those folks. I know they know I know the rules, so they naturally ask me for clarifications. I don't think I've ever been asked by a complete stranger for a rules interp while sitting in the stands.
