I just talked to someone who was at the game who said the BU apparently did see the "flipoff." Home team and/or fans told the PU about it first and the BU confirmed that it happened. Raises a funny question, though, in light of the "If I didn't see it I can't call it" theory: Should the BU have been the one to do the ejection since he saw the USC and the PU did not?

BTW, I don't think the flipper is playing softball this season.
