Talking

Oh yeah - almost forgot my favorite one. A few years ago, I was working a holiday tournament called The End Of The Oregon Trail Tournament. This is a high profile tourney conducted every year at Oregon City HS. This school consistently is rated in the top girls programs nationally.

Anyway, I was observing warmups prior to my game between a local team and one from the Bay area of California. I noticed the center for the Bay area team was wearing her watch during warmups. I went over and asked her to remove it. She apologized and handed it to her dad, who was sitting a few rows up in the stands.

The game started and in the first quarter, my partner and I called her for three second violations about four times. After the fourth, her dad yelled, "Let her put her watch back on."

We were all laughing so hard, I had to take an official's time out.
