Do other's get "escorted to their cars?" Is this normal? Just this tourney?

While I've had a few heated games, I've never thrown out folks, had it carry over after the game, had cops or Administrators take action, etc. Maybe I'm lucky. Just curious as to how prevalent this is?

Thanks

I've had an actual escort to my car once; after a game with a fight. I've found out later about an adminstrator stepping in to stop a parent from following us to the locker room (my partner had issued this guy's son a flagrant personal in a freshman game). The administrator was one of our top varsity officials.

In one city-rivalry where I work, I have received an escort...after the freshman game! There have been other times where the AD has come into the locker room and asked us to wait until certain people either left the gym or were otherwise preoccupied. I did have to call the police once after a 6th grade travel game when an assistant whom I had tossed waited in the lobby and refused to leave. Of course, the officer who came happened to be a close friend of mine.

Wouldn't say it happens alot in our area but it does happen...This was a High School game during the regular High School season. At this school it seemed to be almost SOP.
