A fan told me of an official who USED to say, "Shoot one." Or, "Shoot two." The guy went up to him later and asked why he said "Shoot two" when there were 3 officials and wondered which two should be shot. The official shortened it to "One" or "Two".
This fan also showed up to the opener one year to razz that same official and called to him before the tip to reveal his 'foot locker shirt'. The official smiled at him, unzipped his jacket and revealed that the crew was going with grey that night. Everyone had a good chuckle over that.
