Sorry Badger. I admittedly did not go back and review the rule I cited. I used the cite from the 2005-2006 NFHS Rules Changes which also under the comments section states:

JERSEYS/PANTS/SKIRTS PROHIBITED FROM BEING REMOVED(3-4-15, 10-3-7h, 10-4-1i)

..."the rule is intended to be applied in all situations - even when a player must change uniforms due to blood or other unusual circumstances. It is not unreasonable to expect team members to go to their locker rooms to change their jerseys."

The "special circumstance" excuse is completely invalid though when NFHS has said there are no "special circumstances."

I would NEVER use the "I'M A REF..." line, you're right that is asking for trouble.
