Um, there was no "fight" in the on the Nash foul either.
Elson was upset. The official herded him away from Jones.
You can see him barking at Jones and the official when
he was down. Was it a milder "altercation"? Yes. Was it
an "altercation"? Yes!
Kerr said: "looked like they were going to get into it". It happened
30 feet from his seat... most likely he had a better view than you
did from Hooters....um, or maybe not.
