Any you learn fast! Your English has improved quite a bit since you first started posting. I hope your officiating is gaining as much encouragement as your language!

In my association, we have the AD (Game Management) or Police escort us to and from the locker rooms. There is a police presents all the time at most of the games.

Talking
Sometimes it is so wonderful to smart off to a fan (although I would not recommend it). I baited a guy last year and told him in no uncertain terms to bite a covered part of my anatomy (the REAR part). He just caught me on a bad night and was promptly ejected my game management (at my request). I have never, nor will I ever do such a thing again. I was in a place in which I could get away with it (middle of nowhere) so it wasn't a big deal to me.

But it did feel a little special to give out a little of what I get every night.

My first post (be gentle)

Had a parent/fan follow me out to my car in a dark parking lot at 9PM to confront me about "not calling f*ck!n 3 seconds". He was pissed. I'm about 6'3" 250 but he was right in my face. I started explaining myself to which he replied "I know all the rules now get in your car and get out of here" I caught him off guard by bluntly asking him for his full name, he said it wasn't important to which I replied I had to report him ... I walked back in the building and found the AD and related the story.

Long saga and two lawyers later I recieved a 1 sentance apology. Now guess the grade level???

6th grade girls. And the final score was 60-13. Must've been the officials.

I'm impressed with your self control while out in the parking lot.

I think I'm the rarity on the game management end. When I'm a site director, I usually run from the scorers' table to the door to meet the refs after the final horn. Apparently, around here, they're used to not having anyone so they hang around, get the ball back to the table, etc.

Oh, how I miss college ball . . .

There have been times, and this was one of them, where the drive home was needed to cool off. This guy was all talk, but I was definately ready to go if he swung - it really got the addreniline (sp?) pumping.

Follow-up stories. Seems like that school has quite a history when it comes to their fans.
