My varsity game was moved to Saturday afternoon in the aftermath of Hurricane Ivan. I was the linesman. Late in the game, with the visitors taking a severe beating, the WH drops a flag during a play by the home team. After the play, the WH waves off the flag. Assistant coach for the hapless visitors asks what the flag was for. I replied "I don't know." He says I should go ask the WH. My response: "I don't know why he dropped the flag, but I do know what he had, nothing, that is why he waved it off." Coach, " We want the penalty!" Me, "Coach, there is no penalty, but if there were one I believe it was against your team." That ended the discussion.
