Who cares if the fan was heckling you can't throw a ball at them. He's lucky it's only 1 game.

1. Because buying a ticket to a game doesn't include a license to conduct oneself like a donkey, nor does it permit a person to treat another with utter disrespect.
2. Because the CEO who was behaving very poorly himself and was apparently not in his proper location. What a wonderful way to represent one's company.
3. There is a difference between heckling and engaging in confrontational and threatening behavior. During halftime, when there is NO GAME ACTION, which is this fan doing by standing up and coming over to a position behind the table to yell at the officials?
Yep, the referee shouldn't have done what he did, but there is no question that the fan was clearly in the wrong as well.
