Next foul we got 10 people jingling their keys. Partner again gets game management. GM makes an announcement over the PA - no jingling allowed blah blah blah.
Next foul we got the entire home section jingling their keys. Partner goes nuts. Goes and gets security then runs to the sideline pointing "You're outta here! You too! You're out!" Gawd what a mess.
BTW Visitors still won but didn't hit any free throws after my partner froze the shooter.

If part of the 'blah blah blah' was a T would be issued to the home team, then I am sure it would have stopped. A T is a last resort and should rarely be issued to the crowd.
