rainmaker...have had similar bs from the stands lately...last time during a to, the 'loud fan' was down beside my lower block area. i turned to him and asked which one was his son...he said "number 34". i instantly called 2 fouls on 34, and slyly pointed to his dad in the stands. he was quiet the rest of the game.

this shouldn't happen...but sometimes we have to abuse the whistle...

So Dad made you mad,so what.Did you ever think what Dad's
behavior does to his kid? I've had players near tears because of their parent's behavior,so you suggest that,"Sometimes we have to abuse the whistle," and take it out on the player that is probably as mad at their dad as you are.

You either ignore it or get game management to remove the fan,but you NEVER make up stuff to get even.If you do think
that it is okay,you should not be officiating.
