Hey guys just figured this might interest and maybe drive home the way to handle out of control fans. I got the following email this morning about a game here in Indiana this weekend.

In the new world we live in safety should be of concern. At a game saturday night in the crowd was a fan
from the visiting team. This individual was calling players names (cussing) and
other gestures at the officials. We as officials should NOT CONFRONT
these individuals. We should let game management deal with the
situation.
Game management called police, the officers gave a breath test and he
was
considered intoxicated. In the subsequent arrest the individual was
found
to have a LOADED GUN in his pocket. The officials did the right thing
in
telling management and letting them take care of the situation.

Treat every situation as a possible bad situation!!!! We just don't
know.


This came from a member of the officials association that the official that worked the game is a member of. Definetely makes you think a little about things.
