99 times out of 100, if you see a Canadian Official (pro or not) with his flag stuffed in his back pocket, he's from the West. Flag coming out of the front pocket (we call them the "gunslingers"), he's from the east.

Dates back to the 50's and before when the East and Western Conference of the CFL did not play an interlocking schedule except for the Grey Cup...but the tradition still carries on to this day.
