Question re: Mysterious whistle play

[KARAVARUS]

Guys... Help me here. The call was blown, obviously, but I'm not seeing offsides. I see one guys helmet hovering ish over the ball, but looking at the hands, I can't see it.

It was a Niners fan. He was seated one section above and about two sections north of our section, up near the 20, North End Zone, Seattle sideline. We heard the whistle loud and clear, looked up and saw a group of Niners fans being escorted out. One of my friends asked security what happened and they said the Niner fan had blown a whistle during the punt.

And yes, there were multiple Seahawk fans trying to get to the guy, someone threw a beer at their group, it looked like mayhem up there for a minute, cops and everything.

When you think that fanbase could not stoop any lower, they do something to top themselves. Bunch of clowns. You spend that much money to be kicked out at the beginning of the game?

Yep, they probably paid big money for those tickets too, and got kicked out.

Brilliant. :49ersmall:


PS I find it odd no niner fan has chimed in here.

Any part of the body over the neutral zone (the length of the football) is encroachment, per rule they can get back before the snap

I think most of the obnoxious ones have been eliminated!
Got a feeling the mods have had enough and have privately and quietly swinging the ban hammer! ....and I'm sure the ones that didn't get nuked don't have the "man marbles" to come back after another EPIC beat down of their self proclaimed world beaters!

Maybe he was just trying to help us set the record? :34853_tinfoil:

If the story of the whistleblowing niner fan is true, I wish the Hawks would go public with it, and go to the NFL about it.
