What are your thoughts on offcials and their interaction with fans?(m)

[MadCityRef]

I was in the same position (seat) at the University of Oregon. Some refs were great, most were indifferent. I was threatened with ejection just once in 12 years. (Started young!)

Because of that experience I am able to tune out the heckles and jeers. Rarely do I interact with fans.

Worked a game in a small town recently; when our names were announced the fans applauded. Wow, how cool!, I thought. My cynical side immediately thought, 'you might want to hold that applause until you see me work.' Then I had a sucky game.

Btw, if you see a Ducks home game today, it's a funeral home in comparison to how we rocked the joint.
