Funny, I was doing a state tourney game last year and photographer was on endline popping flashes. I politely asked him to stop and of course he became huffy and continued. We had him chased by management and at half there is a knock on our door and he trys to barge in demanding our names. Of course the standard Mendy Rudolph, Sid Borgia, Dick Bavetta stuff came up as we shooed him away....................ant.
