Despite my avatar, I am very white and very average, so it isn't up for me to decide what is racist. Maybe I'm being naive, but the chant exists because of the rhyming, and would be chanted even if Domenic was an Italian or something, right? Or am I missing an undertone here? And isn't the joke that some people say "big kick Domenic" and it sounds like "dick", so people started just saying "dick" as well? Or something to that effect?
Regardless - if this is the chant that triggered it, then it needs to be communicated and clarified by the club directly. Apparently the security wouldn't provide any clarification or information about it last night after the ejection/walkout.

This couldn't have been the chant - that one's been happening for almost the entire season. If security had a problem with it, it would have been dealt with long ago.
As for the leader of the FS, you're right - he wasn't drunk or doing or saying anything malicious. Literally nothing different than any other game. He made a comment about the usage of the smoke bombs, and then he got ejected by what seems like an overzealous security team.
That said, I hope this is cleared up before next game and the FS are back at it 100%. They are half the reason the games are as fun as they are.
If they're not back, then section 109... the time has come for your transition from apprentice to master!
