I was reffing with my glasses one game (I almost always wear contacts, but one had ripped and I'd not yet gone to disposable lenses). After calling a line violation on a home free throw shooter, I heard someone in the crowd behind me, "You'd be better off without the glasses."
My partner last week said he had someone shout during a quiet moment, "Hey ref, I know you can't see. I work for the eye doctor and you missed your appointment."

When I first started it was junior high boys game, and one of the players was cherrypicking. The ball was lobbed from the other end of the court, and the kid went in for an uncontested layup. This woman screaming at the top of her lungs.."HE'S OFFSIDE, HE'S OFFSIDE....How dumb are you, can you not call an offside." This was maybe my 4th or 5th game of my career, I turned to her and said I know that I am really new but Mam'e I think we need grass or ice for that one. She turned a bright shade of red and her husband kinda just shook his head!!!

I actually got the "back to Foot Locker" comment from a kid in the stands a couple weeks ago. I actually started laughing on the court, ran by, shouting "good one!!"

During an 8th grade boys game, I call a basket interference. The next thing I know, I hear some idiot yelling from the stands "Since when they have a call for Ring Around The Rosey, come on Ref stop making stuff up." All my partner and I could do was laugh.

Packed house the other night. Every time the student section didn't like a call they would chant, "take his whistle!" in unison.
