This is not really meant to be a joke, but I don't know how you'd be able to chew gum and blow the whistle at the same time. I just think it looks bad - like it would look to be in a business meeting smacking gum. I also take my wedding band off while officiating, although many don't. I personally feel that I should not be able to wear jewelry if the players are not allowed to wear it. So maybe I'm just being overly nitpicky about the gum as well.
