I have witnessed him do this several times,not as an official though, and have talked to him about it a couple of times, but yet no one has T'd him for it! Should something like this be T'd and then start the game with free throws, etc???? Just thought I would throw in a good example of "drawing attention to oneself".

I would say yes, "T" him up.
