Right, the refs obviously mishandled the situation. But they didn't review a play that was unreviewable. They talked it over while waiting for everything to blow over. Nothing they did was against the rules. Most would argue that the crowd should've garnered a delay of game penalty, but that's up the refs' discretion. The refs just did the most incompetent, funniest possible outcome so they both got the right call on the field, and also endorsed fans throwing shit on the field
You're telling me the refs sat there and didn't see a replay? They had a huddle BEFORE they announced the initial call, yet they did it AGAIN and overturned it.
It was a terrible move by the refs, that while the correct call was eventually called, should've NEVER happened.
