Inside the fence

[officialtony]

Keep in mind that only half of the fans and one of the benches are mad at you. Approach the bench that is NOT upset with you as soon as things BEGIN to get ugly and have them call the TD and advise them you would like the police summoned. They can do that discreetly and you can have the protection you need and deserve. In the interim, you can continue as if nothing is wrong and as soon as the TD and/or the police arrive, deal with all of it at one time. This message will be seen and heard by all and should alleviate the problem. Also request that the police stay until the end of the game for your safety and that of your partner(s). I haven't had to do this yet, but I am ready with a plan if it does occur. This is how I feel you " eject fans or unruly attendees " - without lifting a tossing finger.
