As an official I realize how powerless you must feel that is "not in the spirit" of the rules to allow such an orchestrated attempt at disconcertion, yet there's nothing we can do about it. Most likely the faculty member who is the cheerleader coach prolly came up with that ruse. Last night I worked a game wherein I heard a fan shout out during the FT attempt: "how's your dog doing!". The FT shooter did pause for a second and missed the shot.

I heard "I'M BLIND, I'M DEAF, I WANNA BE A REF" last night. I thought it was funny.

Usually the blind ones are far from deaf though.
