I still get a chuckle from a mother that was just riding this poor Ref that couldn't have been but 18 or 19. And then she started to berate this poor kid so I stepped in and asked that she calm down and not make any personal comments to the Ref. Of course she then started on me which was fine. I am very thick and in every way. But the comment that just dumb founded me was when she told me that the problem with all the Refs was and I quote, "Young Refs allow themselves to be intimated by the fans!!!". Are you kidding me? I am not sure why a mother screaming at you and why you are the worst person on the face of the earth, would be intimidating to a young person.
