PARKING LOT :
            DON'T wear colors of either school to the game
                      label your car
                      park next to team bus
PRE-GAME :
           DON'T ovevisit with one coach
                     swear or run pass patterns
                     mingle with fans
                     look like you're bored, stay busy
                     don't clap unless both teams do
GAME :
          DON'T carry whistle in your mouth
                    blow it if you can't see the ball and not on every play
                    ponit on fumble recovery until you've called color
                    grab for flag if you aren't going to throw it
                    stretch...use your beanbag
                    signal catch/no catch from  a distance
                   relay ball overhand or for more than 10 yards
                     lose concentration during live ball (only  10-12 minutes per game)
                     lose concentration during dead ball (that's when cheap stuff happens)
                     laugh at play(ers) - OK to laugh with them
POST-GAME:
           DON'T wear hat or whistle when off field
                     linger or discusds game with fans
                     wander off, stay togather
                     seek out coaches
                     leave locker room in a wreck
                     pop the first one 'till ya' have left campus   

ElvisLives:
Every one of those items are 100% universal. Good list.
When I tell folks around here these things, many of them get a look of annoyance, as in, either those things are too much trouble to do, or they are ‘above’ doing those things.
But, these are the absolute proper ways to do things.
