During a high school game last week in West Burlington, Iowa, the crowd became unruly after a disputed play at the plate. So he did what any high school ump would do: He ejected the entire crowd.br /br /We'll let the a href="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/stories/061409dnspohsbaseiowa.3549243.html"AP/a explain:br /blockquotespan class="vitstorybody"span class="vitstorybody"An umpire emptied the stands at a high school baseball game, ejecting the entire crowd of more than 100 fans for being unruly. /span/span/blockquoteFucking love the AP. So concise.br /br /Briggs then called the police and convened with the school's superintendent, both coaches and the other umps, and after a 40-minute delay it was agreed the fans could return, under the condition that any negative comments made could result in ejection and a disorderly conduct charge.br /br /Sounds reasonable, sure. Thing is, neither the superintendent nor the cops saw any bad behavior by the fans whatsoever. So perhaps Briggs was overreacting just slightly.br /br /Iowa sounds so damned fun, doesn't it!? And hey, West Burlington won, 12-11. So everyone went home happy.div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19679634-7981904005937895109?l=zachls.blogspot.com'//div
