Scorebook and scoreboard both says 57-56, referee verifies score is

visual confines the scorekeeper detects an error in the
book, making score 56-56. As the officials enter the
locker room, someone from game management comes and tells
them the news. What happens next?

By strict adherence to the rules what happens next is the officials shower and go home, but it would be a tragedy. Anyone know of a sitation where this has actually happened?

Actually I was thinking of something that happened last year
(or the year before) where the officials left the floor,
then came back and looked at an unofficial replay, then
got the players out again, or something like that. It took
them about 15 or 20 minutes to decide whether the game was
over or not. I think it was about a last second shot,
not a scorebook error, but this thread somehow reminded
me of that. Anyone else remember this?
