Frankly, I think this entire thing is silly. As long as announcers don't go all "And 1" on us, or do anything disrespectful, then who cares? I don't know what's worse, this or the fashion police stuff.

I don't. The rule is vague, so I doubt my state will care if my enforcement is vague.

And I agree with all posters in that our games are not to be ab-used as a time for the "wanna be speech majors to hone their speaking skills;we hear enough embellishments from the fans. So often when they are yelling "and one" in reality it is "and none" is what I think to tell them, heheh.

But I must say during a game break the PA woman realllyyy advertised the taco and cheese on sale in the lobby. Hilarious even!

Got this in an email this morning, this is how we are to handle this.

"The announcer repnsibilities are listed. Should you be at a contest where the announcer is not following this protocol-- DO NOT CONFRONT THE ANNOUNCER. notify game management if possible and/or contact me(director of officiating).
