The Slowest Official, Ever !!
Many years ago, I worked with an official who was known for his very slow, post game routine. He would actually shave before he showered. We had a varsity game once at a nearby Catholic school. As our custom, I waited for him so that we could leave together, no big deal, since I lived only a few minutes away. When we're ready to leave, we walk through the gym, which had all the lights turned off. We get to the main entrance, and find that the doors are not only locked shut, they're chained and padlocked shut. And there's no one around. Luckily, I had done some CYO games at this school, so I knew that there was an alternate exit through the cafeteria's kitchen. Sure enough, these doors were locked, but not chained, so all we had to do was push on the push bars.
True story.
