We've had at least two incidents of players attacking referees, and at least one has gotten significant play here on this blog.
Yesterday, however, the tables got turned a little bit in a community college football game in Mississippi where the conference in which the two teams play had to toss the coach of East Mississippi Community College and the referee for a fight!!
It all started with a bench decorum warning by the official, to which the coach said he'd get the team to comply. Ref didn't like it, according to a witness whose account of the incident you can read here:

Oy. There is a video in the Deadspin article, but even they admit it's not much help except for the announcers being mind-boggled at the entire mess.
