I have had to be pulled out of the stands before to work a game but not in your situation. A few years ago I went to a game to watch a friend of mine work on a Saturday afternoon. It was just before X-mas and my wife was shopping so I took my then 1 year old daughter to the game. My friends co-official did not show up for the game and neither coach wanted the JV official to work the game. (I think becuase they knew I was in the stands and it was two good teams and they wanted two officials with experience) I worked the game in sweats and a T-shirt. The home coach had his wife watch my daughter so I could work. It was a great game and we made a big check. In your case if the visiting coach had no problem with it, then I guess it would be OK. I have been out of high school for over 25 years and there is no way I would work a game for them. Their fans would never let me live it down if they lost. Who won your game and did the visiting coach have any problems with you calling the game?
