I don't know if this is a mitigating circumstance, but I wonder if the assistant stood up right around the time the travel violation wasn't called (correctly I assume) and the "parent/fan" took the cue and howled out his comment from the stands. Assuming this is an isolated incident and by keeping the call as it was, maybe both the coach and the fan learned something the hard way, correct call or no correct call. In the less attended games around here, the area behind the coaches bench is cleared at least several rows up, probably for good measure.
