We got an ovation at our first game of the season.
Saturday morning in November, I'm out running errands when I get a call on my cell from the assignor asking if I've got my stuff with me. I tell him yeah, so he asks if I can get to Azle HS (about 45 miles away) for a DH. I said, sure, when's it start and he said "as soon as you get there... no officials were assigned because they moved the game site". So, when we got there and walked on the court, we got a rousing ovation (completely sarcastic) for being there about 1-2 hours after the teams were there.
