I know, I know....

But it goes to show you that they are very possible. I think if the call happens, as Rut mentioned, in the lane (near the top of the lane imo), then a 3-whistle is actually expected.

Z,

You must be one helluva ref.
Hmmmm, I didn't mean to come off as a know-it-all or ignorant on my post. But I re-read my post and I can see why it was perceived that way. Sometimes typing fingers don't express thoughts very well.

I was trying to imply that the crowd must have been so loud that the officials couldn't hear that they had a double-whistle (which would explain why two D-1 officials both signaled without making eye contact).
