Jack Crawford was a very successful attorney in Lake County before he began having an affair and it went public... causing him to leave town. Security at the stadium was nil. Security was watching the game on their TVs and not on the floor. Security was one of those things that were cut back to save loads of money. Because of this stadium insurance will pay dearly for under protection of those who paid to attend and watch the game. Is this going to be a City Bus Got Hit, situation where you will have hundreds of people trying to jump on the bus.... And claim injury? You know that happens. Hope people kept their ticket subs. The racial approach is also very interesting. Here you have a bunch of drunken white spectators throwing iced liquids, such as pop, beer and who knows what at a bunch of black basketball players. Is that the proper behavior? Should these people be charmed for causing some of the disturbance? There were children and parents in the bleachers watching this game and were subjected to something they did pay to see. What affects will it have on their children? Lastly the players. Shame on them. They are the professionals. The ref's were doing their job and the game could have continued. The bench was almost cleared, which is another violation of the league. Everyone knows that. Yes, the monies will roll. And roll. And roll. Pacers play the Piston again in December. Can you imagine the price of those ticket, how the fans will dress and the number of security present at the game. Should be interesting. W
