We had conclued pre-game with coaches and were standing in the home team box stretching. The punter was stilling warming up. Our WH was stretching with his head down and feet wide apart. Someone yelled "HEADS UP" which the WH did just as the ball landed right in front of him. He spent the rest of the pre-game sitting on the bence moaning with the rest of the crew laughing our heads off!!
I was working L in a big game envolving two rivals. The corners were working a close man coverage with a lot of bumping near the line. 3rd and 10 late and you know its a pass. Receiver and corner running down field and I'm right with them; I glance @ QB and he is cocked ready to throw. The receive curls inside and the corner makes a break on the ball and I'm saying "man this is going to be interesting". Suddendly they both stop and look directly at me and I'm thinking "what the hecks going on"? I look back at the QB and all I saw was the white stripe of the ball as it hit me directly in the mouth!
yes, I still have my teeth.
