When I came to the table and the V coach and his assistants heard me recording the warning with the scorer, they looked on in disbelief. That was followed by the HC telling his AC's that they were to keep quiet the rest of the game. Not a peep from the AC's the rest of the game.
Maybe that was my Crew Chief's intent all along. He is a wily old veteran.

A "book" warning was given at one of our State Final games (the infamous one) where it was called out as being wrong.
I would actually like to see a rules change where that was allowed so that we could send a better message for sportsmanship. Other methods IMO do not really work very well. I hate the "stop sign" and at least it could be noted officially and probably do the very same thing that happened in this story.
