Reply to "Do fans go to games to watch umpires eject players?"

Have to agree with Elder on this one, HTBT but my 1st assumption was something lead up to this. 

Got roped into umpiring a few games when kids were younger. Changed my mind on umpiring, lol. Crazy parents and plays not finishing out the way my mind said they should is a couple reasons. The one play I got completely wrong was when I called a force out at 3rd on a sharp one hopper to the 3rd baseman. R on 1st and 2nd, kid got lucky and picked it clean at 3rd. Took 1st step toward 3rd base for the easy force out and my fist went up to end the inning. Only problem was junior decided to spin around and chase the runner coming from 2nd. Throw ends up by the right field fence and everybody scores. Talk about a s@#t show that I didn't sign up for.
