Here in Oregon, we have a special group that can eject a spectator from a game. They're called "the police". We have a state law that says if a sports official directs someone (actually - anyone) to leave the venue and that person does not leave, they are guilty of trespass and the police may be called to take care of the situation.

The law has been in effect for about two years and so far, I've never heard of it being needed, but I carry a copy of the statute in my bag (along with a copy of Oregon's "sports official assault law") just in case.

BTW - whoever wrote that article that was linked in the OP is a moron.
