not well lit fields
You're kidding, right? The only well lit fields I go to are large school stadiums -- and many of them aren't very well lit. Smaller school stadiums, campus JV fields, and jr. high fields are notoriously poorly lit -- some more so than others. I've been on a few that were so dark, I actually considered suspending the game.

Never had the lights go out, but my very first game on the field, we were working on a field without lights. 2 games scheduled and starting at 5:00 (in August). Needless to say, we didn't get the second game in without running the clock in the 4th quarter, and of course, an idiot coach blamed it all on us. I just about read that coach the riot act in front of his team, saying how dare he even hint that it was the fault of anyone outside HIS school district.
