A stressful moment in the game can be when play has stopped due to confusion.  The intensity can be fueled by the crowd.  The crowd can and may play a factor in hindering you and your partners’ ability to administer an infraction properly and resume play.   The crowd is very capable of fueling and masterminding coaches to be more animated.  As much of the impact, they are very known to ignite players’ attitudes and athleticism during the game. 

With many tools available to us during the game, one of the most missed tangible tools is utilizing your table crew.  Make sure you have a good conference with your table crew prior to the game, and involving the game announcer as well.  In an event of confusion during the game, the crew at the table may be your best ally.

The table announcer can help you tame the crowd, by clarifying a confusing infraction.  This may give you the best opportunity to continue play.
