Working a conference tournament a few years back my partners and I had the first game. I decided and tried to convince my partners that we should wear shirts under our jackets. They said they were going with turtle necks only. I wore the shirt.
In the third inning it had gone from a windy 60 to a still 75.
I took off my jacket and got told by the UIC to put it back on so that we would look 'uniform'.
When we got into the room I took off my jacket and shirt and both made a loud 'SLAP' as they hit the floor. I had sweated through both of them. I HATE setting the dress code for all umpires off of what one guy wants to wear.
I was working First
Sorry for the rant.
