Interesting thread
I have a very low threshold for parents. But it also depends on the age of the athletes. If the kids are younger, I will not tolerate their parents acting like kids themselves. I just had game managers remove 2 parents this past weekend for unsporting outbursts. These were 6th grade games.
I use to organize and run leagues as a profession and we as an organization had pre season meetings and post season meetings to discuss parent's behavior. These types of meetings were important and valuable. And obviously don't happen nearly enough.
With that said, I have never had to remove a spectator from a high school game or any age higher.
