  • Fan ejected for not sitting down

    Since we have had a discussion of the sit vs. stand issue, I thought this article was interesting. This kid from University of Arizona thought it was his right to stand during the game, while other season ticket holders behind him objected.
    When he was asked to sit down by University police, and refused, the arena security handcuffed him, and escorted him out of the arena.

    There is apparently a recognized appropriate time to stand, and it is not appropriate to stand full time.
    Commander Kevin Haywood of the University police said, "He refused to stop standing even though the play of the game did not dictate that, which was not conducive to the dynamics of the game."

    This gets the silly rules of the year in my book.

    I think this is where they clearly could have worked this out amicably, and failed to even try.

    Next thing you know, some lone disgruntled fan will try to get standing or holding a sign banned at Carver Arena.
