There is no such thing as a licensed crowd control. Not even a police officer is a "licensed" person. There is a very significant legal difference between someone who holds a "license," and someone who holds a "certification." No State, organizing body, or anything else you want to call it or can come up with offers a licence for crowd control. There's just no such thing, got it?
Sometimes less is more, and you're proof of that. The more you say, the more evident it is that you don't have any idea of what you're talking about. One of the biggest liabilities in any situation is somebody who has training, but very little experience. Training is necessary, but experience is far more valuable than training. Training without a lot of experience only qualifies someone for "training wheels." Training without a lot of experience qualifies a person to follow the direction of someone who does have experience.
Stay behind the table. Don't get up till the game is over unless it's to get your free hot dog. Don't interact with coaches, players, or fans. Let the teams or the referee's take care of untucked jerseys, resist the urge to say something. In fact, as if your life depended on it, resist all impulces to do or say anything more involved with the game than your job. If barely anybody in the building has noticed your presence, you've probably done your job well.
