No, what would have been funny was if you were filling in on the JV game and you were staying to do HIS game.

Actually had something similar happen last year, I was working a JV girls game & the varsity coach was sitting behind the team bench making snide comments most of the first half. Just before we started the 3rd quarter, I quietly told the JV coach "Coach, you need to get your bench under control". This apparently did the trick, as we hardly heard another peep out of the varsity coach the rest of the game.
I was also doubling for the varsity game, and mentioned it to my partner during the pregame. The look on the varsity coach's face when we introduced ourselves during warmups was hillarious - took everything I had not to break out in a big grin! She was just fine the rest of the night - had my partner & I chuckling to ourselves, as she had somewhat of a reputation for being "a little vocal". [/B]

Had a similar situation a couple of years ago. I had already worked the F/JV game (wise-@ss V coach sat behind the bench during JV game) and one of the varsity officials (2-man crew) was involved in a fender-bender on the way to the game and I had to fill in. During introductions in the varsity game, the varsity coach sort of apologized and asked me if anything would be "carried over" because of his comments during JV game. I just smiled at him and said "No, I'm an adult" and just walked away. No comments from him the entire game.
