This means that there is a much greater medical urgency for officials with wide parts like the one in the film to re-hydrate themselves as soon as possible at the end of games. To do so, they use an approved procedure known as "Brownpop Therapy".

That is why Dan_Ref for instance looks like a cross between Speedy Gonzalez and the RoadRunner at the end of a game.

It's true, it's true........
Thank-you, JR, for that enlightening and wonderfully articulated explanation of rain forests...or was it less foliated, wide body officials...either way, it was pithy.
