This is exactly why I turn down all opportunities to officiate inner city games. It isn't football, it is babysitting. The teams suck, it is all about the individual, and the games take way too long because you have to deal with this crap.

Never had anything like that happen at the high school level in my 40 years of officiating football. I worked some games between say Syracuse Henninger (the Brothers from the East Side) and Syracuse Corcoran (the Brothers from the South Side). My position at Umpire (U) was to be enforcer. After games like that I'd be hoarse from "talking" to the players to try and keep them focused on playing the game. I guess I was pretty successful at it. My assigner would sometimes take me from my regular crew and put me with a weaker Referee (R) so that he could actually work some varsity games. I didn't mind. One JUCO game I worked ended in a brawl. I was working the sticks (Linesman) and told my chain crew to drop the gear when the game ended and get out of there. One of the schools was banned from play for a season as a result of that.
As far as I can remember, I only ran (DQ'ed) one player from a game. He threw a punch at an opposing player right in front of me. It was a mid-season game, so I had no hesitation. Had it been otherwise, I might have just flagged him for illegal use of the hands. Oops, did I give away a trade secret there?

This one's from a couple of weeks ago here in Madtown. Continued on later in the parking lot. I believe there was a teenage cat fight on the under-card.

I believe that is what they call a " run in" on WWE. Two of the main actors exchange blows, and the rest of the crew runs in from backstage to "fight " it out at the end of the closing match.

At :33, on the lower right of the screen, scrawy little fuck blue #4 pops that big monkey with a couple of solid right hooks and puts that big fucker right to his knees. Probably helped his street cred for an hour or so, but now he has to fight every ape in the jungle to hold that cred.
