I agree, I also remember the abuse being worse in the 80s and 90s and the officiating being better. The pay hasn’t changed significantly in a long time. No one should ever get so emotional about a high school game that they threaten people who are usually doing the best they know how.
The mentality of I paid my ___ to get in, I can say whatever I want needs to stop. Sit down and enjoy the dang game. It's not hard. Your opinion isn't going to change anything. In fact it makes things worse sometimes.
