Could you please expand on this for those of us who have no idea what's behind this statement? Thanks in advance.

Deangelo Sanchez (brother of Shemiah Sanchez) likes to position himself behind home plate and engage in a variety of antics designed to distract the opposing team and, arguably, draw attention to himself. Some people (including LSU players, at least those who played with Shemiah) love his energy and enthusiasm. Others feel like he’s taking away from the game and being disrespectful and rude, both to the other team and to those seated around him. There has been at least some suggestion that he is sitting in an area for which he does not actually have tickets.

In any case, there have been numerous complaints voiced both on the internet and directly with the LSU AD. Whether it be from pressure from LSU or just growing tired of the pushback from other fans, he decided last year to stop attending home games. He was still present on the road, but not at home for the latter part of the season. He publicly stated he wouldn’t go to another home game. I guess some here either don’t take him at his word or they feel his presence on the road is still problematic.
