True story from a soccer game a couple of years ago.

I'm AR2 (the guy carrying the flag on the fan side) on senior night in rural Kentucky -- not far from Hopkinsville, incidentally. The park is an absolute bandbox; the concession stand is five feet from the touchline. The place is packed, the fans are loud, and the game is physical.

This is two days after Albert Haynesworth's face-stomping incident.

Well, one of the home team's seniors "goes Haynesworth" on an opposing player. Player is tossed, but the crowd goes ballistic -- even more so that usual for this notoriously-belligerent school.

It got so bad we had to toss the PA announcer who was actually complaining about calls into the microphone.

I'm so glad I don't work high school anymore.
