This "kind security officer" may have been doing his job, but he overstepped his boundries with many people, on many occasions. After the finals match, the kids were sent to go get their plaques at the head table, and were told to go down the stairway by the head table. I happened to be walking, and talking with my young son, congratulating him on his big win, and helping him get dressed.(there was quite a draft in the expo all day.) I also had a table workers pass, but had no intention of going down on the floor with my son. I went down the steps, pointed to where he needed to go, and what he needed to do. I wasn't blocking anyone or anything at that time. This guy told me "to get off the stairs, that they had enough people down there, and that the kids knew what to do." Well, my son is young, and had never been at this point in his wrestling career. He didn't have a clue what to do with the bout sheet. Anyway, after he spoke to me very rudely, he proceeded to push me up the stairs. I informed him, "I was going," but I had just recently had knee surgery, and can't manuever the stairs as quickly as I usually can. He once again placed his hands on my back, and gave me another shove. At that point, I'd had just about enough. I turned around and said again, "I'm going, and get your hands off of me." I also informed him that he had no right to touch me, and had he done it again, I would have considered filing charges on him for assault. What a jerk!!
I understand that they have a big job to do, but come on buddy...get a life.
