HaHa that reminds me...
I had a VG Thanksgiving tourney last month. By the strangest of coincidences, b/c of my schedule and the brackets, I managed to have all 4 games one particular team played, plus 4 others during the tourney.
So, to the story. 1st game with said team. I'm C in first quarter, near the end. As I come up the court in front of team's bench, I hear coach behind me holler obsessively something that very much appear to be "TIME OUT"
I blow the whistle and turn slightly towards the bench. There wasn't any other obvious reason for the whistle, but coach is staring at me with an unspoken "What the h*ll was that?" So, seeing his obvious confussion, I ask "You called TO?" He says no he didn't. Only a few seconds of conversation led me to realize they had a set play named 'FIVE out'.
I giggle to myself, suggest changing the name of the play, and resume at POI. Their next couple of games, I catch myslef almost blowing the same whistle, until I manage to block it out. By the end of the tourney, he dang near had to throw something at me to get a TO.
