Anyone work without a lanyard? I worked on it all summer so I could do it during the season and not drop the Fox, and I'm happy to say I haven't dropped one yet.

However, I had an assigner at the game several nights ago and he asked for one good reason why I do it, and I couldn't come up with a good one, so I told him I didn't have any reason in particular. My personal reason is I figure everyone needs their niche, and maybe that would be mine...??? Unfortunately, I have no better reason than that for why I work without one.

What I'm asking from you is to provide me with one solid benefit to working without a lanyard. Yes, I keep a noose and whistle under my stripes for 'emergency' use, but haven't had to use it...so far!

Can you think of a good reason?

Well one good reason is that the whistle will eventually fall out of your mouth (whether you get hit or whatever). When you do, it's better that it ends up hanging from your neck rather than on the floor.
