You do have authority to T up a team for unsportmanlike conduct of their fans. However, the rule book says you "may" enforce a Technical but strongly suggests otherwise. I've never T'd up a team because of their fans. I don't believe it helps things. I believe it will just make matters worse. Also, how do you know for sure it was the team's supporters? I would not put it past some kid to dress up like a fan for one team in hopes of getting a T called on that team. In my opinion it's best to NOT have rabitt ears and let game administration handle it as others have said.
