I once had a somewhat funny (perhaps sad) reaction from a coach.

I don't remember the level (either JV or V) or whether it was boys or girls.

Near the end of a close game. I don't remember the exact situation except for that I called a foul. I announced my foul at the spot as always. On the way to the report, I noticed that coach A was going crazy...almost enough to get a T. I could not figure out what his tirade was about. I told him to hang on a second while I reported and I'd be back to hear him out. I reported the foul that i had called on B. I then turned to the coach who said: "sorry, I thought you called a foul on us."


Another similar one that many of you have probably had: OOB call. I yell "Blue" and point the correct direction. Player in Blue then comes up to me arguing the call (saying the other team touched it) only to then look down and realize he's wearing blue!!! Priceless.
