I can remember Walking off the field once because of fans - I did not go back to that location.

I remember once flagging down the local police and asking for some people to be removed from the park.

I remember once having a BU partner that was a senior detective who gave a fan to choice of leaving or gong to jail. The fan offered to kick my partner's behind. My partner said he might but he would be gone for at lease a year.

I remember being assaulted once and causing the team to loose the game.

I have been umpiring so long that it was called Rounders when I started.

And this statement right here concerns me the most. Threats are bad enough, but this obviously escalated beyond just words. No umpire, no matter WHAT the situation, should ever have to endure this.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
