Thanks for your insights.
I remember that when I was in high school (10-12 yrs ago) selling tickets at the door at the games, almost 100% of the time the officials would arrive already dressed. Now, for varsity games especially, it's basically the total opposite. At my school, we take pride in being known by the officials as a place where they know they'll be well taken care of from the time they arrive to the time they leave...just as long as it's not tomorrow when they finally do leave
