Not heard by me but reportedly happened to a friend last year...
Coach: Hey Ref! The fouls are 8 - 1!!!!
(Ref Takes a look at the board)
Ref: Yeah coach, in your favor.
Not exactly a coach, but one I heard this year..
One school I work at often has the baseball team practicing in the gym before the game. They hang around for the basketball game and give the refs a fun heckling. At one point, one of them said something like "Hey ref, call it both ways, you'll calling it all against white." Then his buddy piped up and says, "Joe, they've called X fouls on the other team and only Y on us"....First guy goes "Ooops".
