I think "howler monkey" is the animal you're looking for.

BTW, it's not a "coach's box." It's a "coaching box." It doesn't belong to the coach, it's about what he can do in it.

Just wondering how far would you let the coach go? I agree with Nevadaref. I believe if he is using the coaches box and gets a T then he should remain seated inside the box for the rest of the game.
He must sit in the team bench area, which is designated prior to the start of the game.

If an official doesn't wish to be so rigid as to restrict him to a seat within the length of the coaching box, the most one could reasonably allow is for him to remain seated with the confines of the team bench as defined by game management per 1-13-1. He is not allowed to go sit up in the stands with the crowd. Bench personnel must be on the bench.

Coach May Stand To.....
 
Once the coach is "seatbelted" he or she is still allowed to stand up in certain specific circumstances: during a charged time out, during intermissions, to spontaneously react to an outstanding play by a team member, to acknowledge a replaced player, to request a timeout, to confer with the table personnel for a correctable error situation, and to confer with the table personnel to prevent or rectify a timing, scoring, or alternating possession mistake.
