Hawks Coach,
Cash payment is far more common than you think, even in your area. When I officiated in the DC/MD area we would have a handful of cash games each summer at different tournaments. The games were still assigned through our commissioner, but he would tell us that it was a cash game and to make sure we got paid on-site.
BTW, the biggest summer tournament in the country, the BigTime in Las Vegas, also pays in cash. I am going next week.
