We recently had a meeting and talked about fights. We heard of a time about 10 years ago where there was some rough play and someone caught a flagrant elbow and sued the officials, the school and the state association. Said the officials were neglegant for not stopping rough play earlier in the game i think.

They talked about another instance where the cheerleaders left their pom poms on the floor (about 6 feet from the sideline so well out of the way). a player went OB, stepped on one and slipped, went up into the stands and broke his leg. They sued everyone imagineable and the state paid them off
