Dark Humor
This one is funny many years later, but it is a bit dark humor.
About 10 or 12 years ago I was doing a varsity grade school game. One sideline was a "hot" sideline from the beginning. A player from that sideline was running a pass route and had the ball nearly in his hands when he "heard footsteps", got cold feet and dropped the ball. A coach ran out ranting...grabbed the kid by the facemask, jerked him around calling him a "pussy". I immediately threw a flag for unsportsmanlike penalty to which the coach responded, rather loudly, "You can't throw a penalty on me....he's my kid!". I preceded to toss the coach out of the game.
