The rule exists for shitty behavior exactly like Mr. Shubrook.

It is an odd rule. In my youthful exuberance, I have slid down the roof of beer tents, fallen off stages, been in fights, packed scums in yacht club bars , thrown drinks in fans and on three glorious occasions, been arrested for after race antics (the Gladstone constabulary had a hair trigger over the Easter holiday period back in the day, particularly towards groups of drunks wearing the same shirts) yet the only time I have been threatened with a rule 69 was for calling someone a muppet on social media.

And yes I was a throughly poisonous lout.

Are you sure that you used the correct tense there? Perhaps we might ask Meli for her opinion...

Yea I went last year too, what a slog that was! We tested in the morning and were cleared by the evening. On the island nodoby cared about covid.

My issue was not with the bermuda officials but with the race officials. I'll post it eventually but it would be foolish to give them a sneak peak at my arguments.

Here are two reasons to wear a baseball cap backwards:
**The wearer plays the position behind home plate. The catchers equipment includes a face mask that won’t fit on right unless the catcher turns his cap around
**As an announcement of readiness to perform a certain act.
“Look!! My brim is out of the way!”
The brim pokes at the belly and annoys the person upon whom the wearer is performing fellatio.

As a guess---Probably a private matter rather than a misdemeanor or governmental or law-enforcement one. Unless it was at a customs or immigration station.

But what the fuck are you doing flipping tables and knocking down signage, if indeed that's what you did? You're a guest. Behave like one.

What's wrong with flipping a table or 2?
Did he hurt someone's feelings or some NYYC pussies feelings.
There is no more mask mandate, you can't force someone to wear one, he stood up for his rights that THIS government is trying to take away from us.
