In my six years of officiating, I have had three fans removed from the gym. Sometimes, enough is enough. I'm not proud of this, but I felt it was my responsibility.
I would recommend not to look for trouble, but if you can isolate an individual and they are obviously crossing the line, get with game management and have them removed. Nothing personal, just business. You are paid to control the game and if they are a distraction, handle it. Out of control fans breed other out of control fans. You chunk the first one and I'll guarantee the others will get the message.
