Can't make this stuff up. Tech foul

[ma_ref]

That's very interesting...and certainly a first that I've heard. I've heard of "pantsing" your friends in the interest of good-natured-humor, but never an opponent.

Hypothetically speaking, if B1 was successful, and let's take it a step further, and say B1 got the undergarments of A1 as well, exposing him for all the gym to see, I wonder if there couldn't be some kind of assault charges filed against B1? Again, assuming the act was intentional as seems to be the case from the OP...

In your situation a flagrant foul would be in order.

Ditto.

I'm certainly not objecting to upgrading the foul to flagrant and ejecting the player (I'm sure that could easily be justified as taunting), but I'm wondering if the my hypothetical situation could have ramifications beyond the game itself and carry over into the real world...

I would think it certainly could.

Lesson to all officials - don't de-pants players.

Maybe, but that's not our department. I certainly would not discuss the matter with anyone (other than the police, if they requested an interview).

So jumping off this thread -- what if A1 pulls down the pants (not the undergarments) of A2 (his/her teammate). Both are active in the game... I mean a warning for an untucked shirt maybe? lol But anything?

A step further, lets say the undergarments go down... indecent exposure... you got anything? I would think something but wouldn't even know where to begin! haha

I don't think it's that big of a deal for a player to pull off the pants of another player, as long as it's not followed by "illegal use of hands".

I concur
