Was working a VBoys game. I'm at C, L calls a foul. A deputy leaning against the wall behind him took off his glasses and offered them to my partner. Of course, my partner had his back to him but I saw it.

During the ensuing timeout out, I walked over to the deputy and asked him, "Are you here to provide security or act like the rest of these idiots?" No reply but he stared at me the rest of the half.

The next day, our booking agent spoke with the Sheriff, who used to be an official. I've never seen that deputy work another game.
Dang, I was hoping that you tossed the deputy! I would love to have seen that!

Hm, I wonder who would have escorted him out?
