My first year officiating was 1987. No such animal then, although we did have to work into the Cadillac (crossing the court during a live ball), we had a lack of action rule that seems bizarre just thinking about it, we had to (as the trail) signal a good field goal with a two point signal, and of course, the trail administered every single free throw. All counts were a flick of the wrist, too.
I worked my first 3-person game in 1993. The center was always opposite. Rumor (
) has it some backwards state I used to live in still does it this way.
I played from 1983 to 87 and we didn't raise our hands.
