Fan yells back, now that he has the ref's ear, but you whistled the play dead and you can sub on a dead ball. Ref says to the fan, he will wait there all night if I want him too.

I thought the sub could enter at this point even though the Ref had an IW. Can not the sub be beckoned into the game at this point?
Yes, he can enter.

I also had a problem with this ref talking to the fan at a BV HS game. Classless...
But you didn't have a problem with the fan yelling at the ref?

Quite honestly, it's no less classless.
