I've worked Umpire for 10 years now, and I've signalled touchdown FOUR times in all that time.
1) Broken PAT with no LJ on the sideline (this is why I slide to the LJ's side on PATs). (twice)
2) QB sneak from the 1, far hash from the HL in very poor lighting. QB went HL's side but was screened from HL and LJ, with me in perfect position to see the QB and ball.
3) Intercepted pass play behind the LOS in 4-man. LJ and HL are down field, R tackled with QB. I keep up with the ball and am the only one in position to signal.
For the most part, though, at Umpire I hardly ever blow my whistle (except for obvious reasons) and almost never signal TD.
