Lightbulb How about this one.

Varsity Boys game. Number 1 team in the state visits one of the most difficult places to play in the state called "The Pit." The game is in the middle of the winter and the gym has a capacity of about 8,000. Well this night the gym is packed, but because the home management let too many people in the gym to watch this game, condinsation collects on the floor and makes it difficult for the players to not fall. The vent fans are frozen because it is so cold outside it does not regulate the temperture inside the gym and makes the floor like a hockey rink. After several minutes of delay, officials come together to discuss what to do. They cancel the game and do not try to continue because of the condition of the floor.

Ironically, about a half and hour after the game had been cancelled, the fans begin to work.

Now how long to the officials wait to cancel or continue the game? This is not in the rulebook.

This actually happen about 5 years ago to some friends of mine in a varsity game.

Peace
