Sorry, but I'd rather go out on the floor with the old guy any day rather than you. At least, I'd know that I'd be able to turn my back on him.
PS-Did I mention that maybe the assignor put him on those games because he had no one else available, and that he really appreciated the old guy helping out, even though he had to suffer through the games with his bad legs?

Maintaining my professionalism during the game I described in the OP was difficult, but I did it. Maybe someone caught a bewildered look on my face at times. I even tried to watch out for that. What may have been the toughest part was the next night.
I worked a game that included one of the schools from the trainwreck night, though at a different level (8th to JV). Apparently the JV coach was helping out the younger team. He remembered me. I really wanted to apologize for the night before. What I decided was to let my work show for itself. I don't think I heard anything from him during the game. If he didn't before, he should now know where the problem was.
