Last night we had a 7-6 game at the end of the first quarter with 13 fouls on the board. 13 points, 13 fouls. It settled down *a bit* -- we "only" called 22 the remainder of the game.
A couple of years ago my partner and I were watching a brutal JV girls game from the stands and the fouls and points were neck and neck. We placed a friendly wager (one of those where there was really no bet other than who would buy the first round that night) on which would be ahead at the end of the third quarter (when we'd leave to get dressed). I took fouls and I was trying not to cheer every time the JV officials called a hack or a phantom foul. I was up by 2 close to the end of the third quarter when a girl nailed a 3 and I lost by 1.
