So .. you'll never work a tourney or playoff game?

My worst (although not the longest) was the first game of the morning, 1:15 time limit game that went 2:40 - even with ITB, no one could score. I can't even guess how many innings it went --- 17 or 18 I would guess. 1-0 game. Got far behind on my field, but also on other fields because of it. The trickle down had us adding some 7-8 games to Sunday.

Longest was just over 4 hours - typical 7-inning no-pitch walkathon high school game with no time limit.
