Ref turns back after a shot is taken—and sits down. Oh my. Apparently not even paid enough to pretend to pay attention.

WHAAT!? I don't know whether to laugh or cry when hearing this. Hopefully, no one got hurt because of this official's (in)actions. This would definitely NOT happen at a high school game, because the offender would be suspended, sued, or fired for negligence, if not all the above.
