Your AD, Principal and vice principal can sell tickets and popcorn though.
Sooooooo.....be very, very nice to Rookie Dude the next time he shows up. From your standpoint, he is God. |
I'm always nice to RookieDude, he can verify that fact.
I was meaning in circumstances where the officiating crew are involved because of the fan becoming too big of a disturbance where they take attention away from the game.
Generally though, if game management is doing things properly, it should not get to the point of attention being focused into the stands instead of on the court.
