Back in the 50s or 60s, the Chicago Bears beat the Green Bay Packers on such a play. The Packers got off a short punt, which was fair caught. The Bears announced they were going to free-kick for a field goal. Since it had been years since this was last tried, the officials had to huddle and discuss the situation. They ruled correctly, and the Bears won.
