FWIW, regarding the fire extinguisher story, maybe you missed it, but they have rules against showboating and endangering the safety of others. And you might ask, "how did she endanger the safety of others?!". Fire extinguishers have really nasty chemicals in them, you should definitely not use them unless it's a real emergency. And people were quite close to where she was letting it off. I'm a decently healthy person, but I have pretty bad asthma. I'd be pissed if someone let off a fire extinguisher for no good reason near me. Now I can understand if a kid or even if their parent didn't know that about fire extinguishers, but they sure should have known about the no showboating rule and if they didn't, then that's on them.

I have bad asthma. But extinguishers don't bother me. Doesn't invalidate your health situation. Just saying it ain't like 1 out of 10 get sick from it.
Two, she did it in the infield. Not on the track in front of everyone.
With all that,
the race was over. Penalizing someone after the competition is asinine. We going to shoot Tech FT's if a player post game cusses out the refs? We going to assess too many on the ice when the winning team celebrates the Stanley Cup? We going to call illegal TD celebration if a player takes off his helmet after catching a game winning Hail Mary?
That ruling was made by a bunch of stuck up w/a fire poker stuck up in a "dark place".
