Well, I got nailed in the shin, but this morning my left knee is killing me. Either I overcompensated for the 2.5 quarters I worked after the hit or the hit caused my knee to hyperextend or something.
A few years ago, I'm working as the back judge on a crew and a runner heads right for the umpire. U does a good job holding his ground and is ready to swing the gate when the runner cuts right into him. U (and this is a BIG guy, probably 280 of former college lineman) goes down in a heap and I hear someone yell out "FUMBLE!" The linesman and I just looked at each other before awarding the team the ball. Haven't seen anything like it, before or since.
