When I was in HS 3 or 4 of us in the front row of the student section would wear the stripes and joke with (and rag on) the officials. During the girls state championship game one year the chant of the day was "I'm blind, I'm deaf, I wanna be a ref."

I still hold a special place in my heart for loud and idiotic student sections.

Back when I was in high school (Class of 1971) our student section's favorite idiotic chant to the offcials was, "The ref brought his lunch. The ref brought his lunch. Eat it ref. Eat it".

I've always been fond of "We got a rope, we got a tree, all we need is a referee."

And I guarantee someone here will find this unfunny or offensive.

Last night, boys HS rec. Kid goes up for a layup and is ever so slightly touched by the defender. Coach yells for a foul. Of course, it's a no call. Coach yells at me, "Why isn't that a foul?" I reply, "it's the BISS rule, coach". He says "what's that?" I reply, "BISS? Because I Say So". He gets a puzzled look on his face and just sits down.

7th grade boys last night. H winning by about 25 or so. H1 gets a defensive rebound, and V1 bumps him ever so slightly in the back while trying to reach over a taller and stronger H1.

Absolutely zero affect on the play, and I hear "over the back" from H coach. I almost sat him down for vocal diarrhea.

Impossible. Student sections are never, ever, offensive. They are always models of decorum. I'd let my eighty-five year old mother sit in the middle of the student section.
