Bill Vinovich, the referee in that Rams-Saints game, worked a Big West basketball game between Long Beach State and CSUN three nights later in the Matadome, and I’m guessing he didn’t receive a negative reception. The next night he was in Provo for a West Coast Conference game between Saint Mary’s and BYU, and the fans were not so kind. A fan at courtside kept asking, “Was it pass interference?” And a sign that Vinovich asked to be taken down at a TV timeout said: “Don’t screw these Saints, Bill.”
