There are two ways to take care of that situation (see Hopefan post on 1/31/16):
1) Have a respected Eureka Administrator sit with the unacceptable fans and quickly and decisively deal with anyone who gets too enthusiastic. The only problem with that is the poor administrator is at every game and he/she does not want to dampen the enthusiasm of the fans.
2) Have the referees deal with it. They are the ones closest to the action, they can judge what the fan says or does and whether it crosses the line, and they will only be at the site a time or two a year. More than that and the Commissioner should be challenged.
I have been on all sides of this, HBC, AD, Conference Commissioner and it is not an easy issue to handle, but the visiting team and the officials should be treated with respect.
