I don't know if the has been posted here, but this is a good example of how to or not to deal with fans.



Association Leaders,
this was reported the situation below. Please remind your
officials that they should never attempt to deal with unruly fans but
should follow protocol and report the situation to the game management
and allow that group to deal with the unruly fan. You never know what
might happen and you should not put yourself in danger.

Theresia, One of my young officials had a game at New Castle Saturday
night. A fan in the crowd from Marion was cussing at the girls and
officials. Game management was made aware of the situation. They
called
police and he was arrested for drunk and disorderly conduct. However
during the pat down a loaded hand gun was discovered. I have sent out a
note to our members telling them if they have a problem with a spectator
get game management.
