Do they arrest parents for cussing out the coaches all game? Having a sheriff come up to you for using profanity is like living in a ultra Muslim country. They do the same there.

We should operate by “ gentlemen standards”. Gentlemen don’t cuss coaches at games. It’s not the correct way to behave.

"Profanity"?? LOL. Do they arrest parents for cussing out the coaches all game? Having a sheriff come up to you for using profanity is like living in a ultra Muslim country. They do the same there.

I’ve only seen coaches escorted out of the press box once before at a high school game. They were repeatedly warned to stop yelling profanity. They left when the AD told them. They probably have an open press box with no walls separating them. If they were warned multiple times then that’s on the coaches.

In Georgia every sporting event has a statement read before the game about sportsmanship which includes profanity. Which is everyone’s warning that you can be thrown out of the game.

they didn't get arrested for cursing, they were being removed from the press box for it and can be removed from the game(DQ under NFHS and LHSAA policy and rules), they and ANYONE can be arrested for not following instructions given by a LEO or game management at that point. I know of a person that had been removed from a HS in BR twice and was later charged with trespassing when he came back again. Being a coach or paying admission does not give one the right to be a vile hooligan. Nearly every venue also has posted rules about such behavior.
