I was reffing a rec game today and A1 goes in for a dunk while chewing gum. While in the air, he blows a bubble and the G-forces and wind resistance cause it the gum to wrap around his neck. On his way down, the gum gets caught in the net and he gets decapitated. The coach of Team A called time-out to try to keep his headless player in the game, but I felt that since he had lost his head he should have to sit until the clock ran. Then I realized that it was cinnamon gum so I called two technical fouls. I used the elastic powers of being the referee to apply the fouls as indirects against the head coach and sent him packing.

Did I get a little too militant? :-)
