A. No technicals
B. One technical for swearing
C. One technical for removing jersey
D. Two technicals
Fine, I'll play along.

If the floor is good enough to finish the game after the smoke clears -- and the crowd is evacuated after the arrest of said maggot farmer -- a technical foul goes to the home team, citing 2-8-1. (If that isn't using discretion, as the note insists, I don't know what is.)

A certain ref in Nevada would be very proud.

True.

But, good lord! If you can't use 2-8-1 after a fan uses projectile flames, when can you use it!?

I don't know about you, but I'd be leery of T'ing a crowd that includes those that have projectile fireworks...unlike that player, I paid good money for my shirt!
