Big Fan,

I just got off the phone with a really good friend of mine who is a third party to this whole situaiton who was sitting there and witnessed the whole thing. The state tournament is the only one he goes to every year so he has nothing vested in swaying a story to one side or another. I also found out who it was that threw the water, and I was competly surprised becuase this particular person coaches a college wrestling team. In any case from what I have heard, this 69 year old lady was not as innocent as her son would have everyone believe. In fact from what I have heard now from several people, is that she could not keep her comments about anything to herself and was in fact baggering part of the Abilene crowd, especially after Matt Rein lost his match. Now I understand how the Goodland crowd probably felt after having being 1 upped in the team by Abilene once again which is nothing new. But to sit there and purposely try to incite emotions from a team sitting next to you, its very immature. As I said earlier there isn't an excuse for the water throwing event, but it sounds like she got what was comming to her since she couldn't act like a 69 year old and keep her negative comments to herself.

I am totally disgusted with the display by a few of the Abilene faithful, I am even more disgusted by the way that someone would come on here and try to defend someone as if they were innocent, when in fact it was them causing the problem. Grow up people, geez.
