Good story Mark.
After reffing four playoff games across town today, I show up to watch the last game of the season in my son's league - 15U Rec All-Star Game. I arrive 10 minutes before game time - one official. He comes over to me and says "Hey man, I need help." Apparently, there was some kind of screw-up and he has been reffing all day by himself - three All-Star games. Sux. Ya can't do B15U by yourself.
Unfortunately, I didn't have my stuff......duh. I thought about it, but didn't bring my smelly stuff from earlier, duh.
Jeans (belted) and a t-shirt. Borrowed whistle.
It was one of the most fun games I've done in a while. A good game. Parents, coaches, players - all buddy buddy. Joking and having fun.
We even agreed to a 5th quarter.
Good way to end the season.
Truth be told, five games is my limit........I'm pooped.
I did two MS games last night. Five today. Tomorrow, we end another league and I do their Championship and All-Star Games. Actually can't wait to go to work Monday and get some rest.
