I've posted this before but it seems to fit in this thread. A few years ago, I was working a middle school tournament at a venue in Beaverton, Oregon that does not allow anyone to bring in basketballs from the outside. You must use the ones at the facility for all games and practices.
During halftime of a 6th grade boys game, one team grabbed all the available basketballs to warm up. A player from the other team came up to me to complain. He said, "Isn't there a ball quota?"
I replied, "Yes. Two per player. Girl's league is different".
He stared for a moment and then he "got it". He grinned really big and went back to tell his teammates what I said. They all laughed and for the rest of the game, that team thought I was "the cool ref".
I guess it proves I can tap right in to 6th grade humor.
