Tossed the P.A. announcer

HS boys game last night. Lead calls a foul on a home player and takes it to the table. I am C. As my partner turns his back to the table after reporting, the P.A. announcer covers the microphone with his hand and starts screaming, "that was a horrible call" at my partner. I start walking towards the table. I give him "the look" and put my hand up and say, "stop!" He keeps yelling. I quicken my pace towards the table and catch eyes with the gym administrator who starts running towards the table. Before I can even tell the announcer that he's been ejected, he stands up and exits the gym. Something tells me that this isn't his first time. I filed a report with our assignor and I'm guessing that his announcing career is over, at least for this year.
