Unless that fan is doing something that keeps me from being able to continue the game, such as running around the court, I'm not holding it up. To be frank, the game isn't about the fans... it's about the players. And I'll be damned if I'm going to make those players, and every other "innocent" person, suffer in any way because of one that a-hole.

If they are interfering with the game, I do not care what attention they are getting, I am having them removed. I do not have to put up with their crap because they choose to be an azz. And if they are ejected in my state, we have reports for that that the school will have to deal with the state. So I am perfectly in my power to have someone removed. If this fool wants to try it, then we will sit there until that time comes. And then everyone else in the gym knows that behaving that way they could result in the same action. And they probably are not coming back either if they make a big deal. Now when I work in those bigger arenas, then it might not be a different situation, but in a HS gym, they are leaving and we are waiting.
