Former NC State stars Tom Gugliotta and Chris Corchiani showed up on Saturday to support the home team against Florida State, but they ended up getting too rowdy for referee Karl Hess’ liking.

They left the arena to a standing ovation after they were apparently thrown out for heckling Hess, who told a security guard to do his bidding.

According to John Clougherty, the ACC’s supervisor of officials, the referee should have approached the home team’s management to throw out the duo. Why officials have such large egos is a mystery to me. Video below.
