Another example of perception.
In a high school game last week, a guy I know walks onto the floor to ask me a question about a situation. I quickly usher him back to his seat and tell him that I can talk to him after the game. When we chatted the next day, I reminded that (first of all) you never step onto the court during a game. And secondly, he was at the game because his daughter was playing. It never occured to him how this might be perceived that the father of a player was coming onto the floor to talk to an official during a timeout.
