Jersey switch?
The other night, I was told this story by a guy who used to officiate in a different state (Ohio). He said this happened at a varsity HS game he was working a few years ago. Apparently, there is a team whose school colors are crimson and white. Sometimes they wear crimson jerseys on the road, sometimes they wear black. They have sets of each in addition to white home jerseys. In this game, they were getting clobbered early and at halftime, they switched from their crimson to their black jerseys. All the players kept the same numbers. This official and his partner (two person crew) really didn't know what to do since the numbers were not switched. They asked the home coach if he had any objection and he said he didn't, so they went ahead and played the second half that way. As you might have guessed, it didn't help much and they still lost big time. The official said the most confusing thing was trying to figure out why they brought the two sets of jerseys with them in the first place.
Any thoughts? Would you have allowed it?
