I've gotten more than one pat on the back from fans (and players) thanking me or a partner for shutting down a game-wrecker. I don't think anybody is wrong in how they approach this, but I like the head-on method. Have I ever tossed a fan out of a ballgame?? Never.

By rule, game management needs to take care of these problems.(not us) I believe that you lose focus, of your task at hand, if your head is in the stands.. even the slightest bit.
I am not in agreement with the "head on" approach. No good can come from confronting fans, even if you get "pats" from other people around.
If a fan "physically" prevents me from doing a game, then it is a different story. For all other things, I handle it by using the recommended rule of game management, or writing up the incident. Still MHO.
