For me it's things like that that keep the game fun for me. It would be wonderful if every scorekeeper and clock operator was perfect, but these little things keep humor in the game and make me enjoy it more. I know it is different at different levels and I would not expect this in a high school game, but I have to admit I enjoy these little strange things that happen at games.
For example, on Friday night I was watching a varsity game that was before the game I was scheduled to do. One team was not very good and could not hit a bucket if their life depended on it. Anyway, they inbound the ball to a player in the corner who takes a picture perfect three (or so they thought) and gets nothing but net, in the wrong basket. Even at a varsity level when they figured out what happened even the player who shot it got a good laugh out of it.
Every so often it is nice to see players, coaches, fans, and referees actually get some enjoyment out of the game.
