I will say,though, the odds of getting in trouble for calling the T are far greater than the odds of getting into trouble for just having them removed.

I was working a HS boys playoff game about 7-8 years ago when a ball ended up in the stands. A student took the ball and threw it into the back of one of the visiting players.

My partner called a technical foul on the crowd. It was as good of a call as the one he made on a certain YouTube video that seems to get posted every other week.
