BTW in 50 years of watching, and 33 years of calling, I've never seen it before. You have a conversation piece there.

Here is one I'd never seen until it happened in a game we were doing. Team A to kick on a try. The kicker kicks the ball, then a B player attempting to block dives and lands at the feet of the kicker. (not on by right next to the kicker) The kicker then attempts to kick the B player while the B player is on the ground. (Apparently the kicker was upset that the B player came so close to him.) We had two flags on the kicker for a personal foul and ejection. The B coach goes nuts but we had two flags and no doubt in our minds what we just saw, although it was a shock to see it happen. Our white hat got a call from the guy at the state office since the B coach called to complain about it. (AND the ejected B player was not allowed to play in their next game because of the ejection.) Unfortunately, the camera people for both teams had shut off their cameras since the kick was over by that time so there was no replay to look at. But, we saw what we saw and it wasn't pretty!
