For all of you new officials, Rut has made a very good point. DO NOT worry about fans unless they come on the playing court or field or make a threat of physical violence against a participant (player, bench personnel, or game official) and when one of those two things happen, notify game management and let it handle the situation. Game officials should avoid any type of interaction with fans, have game management do its job.
