We almost has something one step similar last week.
At the end of a VERY close game, some chump threw his helmet into the air to celebrate. Our LM was just standing up after retrieving the clip and the helmet came down (from about 5 meters up - 16 feet) about 1/2 inch from the nose of the LM.
It bounced away as well, so no contact was made, but it was darn close!
The player was reported to the league (we have no jurisdiction after the end whistle blows), who gave him a warning. Supposedly he was very appologetic afterwards.
