Youth Tournament game.
Obvious out of bounds play in front of team bench. I yell the right color, but point the wrong way. I immediately correct my point while the coaches jump up from their chairs. They were supposed to get the ball. I look at the coach and say, "I just wanted to see how fast you could get up." He smiles, thinks about it and says, "How did I do?" I say, "Slower than most." Not my usual mo, but something clicked in my head to difuse the situation before they started something else.
