Why We Chose It
We tend to think of this -- fans behaving badly and berating officials as an entirely modern phenomena -- but if we're to believe the news, it's been happening for much longer than that. Today, and likely in response to incidents like this -- we have the North Dakota High School Activities Association which stands in as a moderator and administrator when these issues arise.
