Why?

Money? Exercise? Stay on top of your game? See some buddies that you don't normally see in the off season? Give the kids an official who cares? Get away from the wife, kids, and dog? Get out of doing household chores? Masochist?

We had an official many years ago who would work games anywhere, anytime, any level, any distance, any fee, etc. We would kid him and say that he would work a game in the bathtub, if they had one. You remind me of that guy.

Your ratio of working any other level games to high school varsity games must be about a hundred to one? Don't you ever get tired, either physically, or mentally?
