I have heard of two teams bringing officials clear across the state to call a playoff game because they can't agree on anyone local.

Officials are generally assigned from the other side of the state for playoffs in my area.
Of course, Connecticut is many times smaller than Texas - we can drive from one side to the other . (What is the reimbursement for airfare?)

In Colorado, a playoff game between Denver and Boulder would involve a Colorado Springs official. 80 miles away. But that is not clear across the state. Here, I saw two teams that were twenty miles from each other import officials from 150 miles. No I have not seen them take El Paso Officials and bring them to East Texas but it wouldn't surprise me if they did.
