Guilty as charged.
I was clock operator in a league tournament. Alternating varsity boys' and girls' games. After a couple of minutes in the second half of a boys' game, one of the officials came over to the table with the ball, and said, calmly, "Do you have another ball back there. This one doesn't seem to have enough air in it." He handed us the girls' ball, and we gave him the other one...which happened to be a boys' ball. I don't know that anyone, other than him, knew what was the problem.
I always thought that official was one of the best, and his handling of this problem reinforced my opinion.
