I had my first games this weekend as well. Worked the two youngest-kid games on the visitors sideline. I then switched over to the home sideline for the senior game. Well, home team wasn't too happy with my calls, and thought that all of us refs must have been from the visiting town.

Only problem - I was from the home team's town.
