Around here, it is a perk of being an official. If you have an official's card, you get in free, no matter who is playing. Jr. highs are not obligated to accept these cards, but every one I have ever attended does honor them.
The point here is that my card was refused, while another guy's identical card was accepted. I am told that this qualifies as discrimination, which goes past the point of showing ones a**, and reaches the point of being against the law.
