Re: Who have you seen get booted from a game live
I was at the game in which the infamous Vernon Maxwell incident occured.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernon_Maxwell [ QUOTE ] 1995: In a game at Portland, he ran into the stands to punch a fan, later claiming the fan had heckled him over his wife's miscarriage. [/ QUOTE ] Wow, this isn't really related but look at the next entry... [ QUOTE ] 1997: Ordered to pay $592,000 for knowingly infecting a woman with herpes. The plaintiff was awarded a default judgement as Maxwell did not appear in court. [/ QUOTE ] Crikey! |

I was at the Dave Winfield seagull game. He didn't get booted, but he was escorted from the stadium by the police on charges of animal cruelty.

Re: Who have you seen get booted from a game live
Only NBA game I've ever been to was a Blazers - Sonics game in Seattle. Scottie Pippen racked up two quick T's (and so did Dale Davis, IIRC). They both got ejected, and the crowd was loving it. Scottie was furious, and I think somebody was pulling him to the locker room. Sonics were up big at the half, until Rasheed Wallace completely took the game over and started raining three's like crazy. Blazers won.

Re: Who have you seen get booted from a game live
I've got two good ones out of a fairly small population:
1) When I was a kid, the first Laker game I ever went to at the old Forum, both Magic Johnson and Kevin Johnson got tossed in the first quarter. The crowd chanted "bull-[censored]" for several minutes afterwards. 2)I was at Dodger Stadium a few years ago when Milton Bradley went apeshit and tossed a plastic beer bottle into the stands after someone threw it in his direction in right field. He proceeded to curse profusely and take his shirt off as he was escorted off the field. Lost in all this was a great comeback by the Dodgers, who beat the Rockies 5-4 after trailing 4-0 going into the bottom of the 9th. |

Re: Who have you seen get booted from a game live
Like everyone else, I'm sure I've seen many, but the only one I can remember is watching Bob Huggins get tossed from his team's First Round tournament game against Gonzaga in Salt Lake City in 2003 (IIRC).
Thankfully his team got the boot shortly thereafter so we could witness the Zags take #1 seed Arizona to double OT in the game of the tournament. The most ejections I ever saw occurred in a minor league hockey game between the Tri-City (WA) Americans and whoever they were playing. The fight lasted for about 30 minutes and the two goalies even got into a good battle. |

A few years ago, the Raptors played an exhibition game in London Ontario. It was against the Sixers, and Iverson was booted by Dick Bavetta in the first half. It is the only time I've gotten to see him play. What a [censored]
