As reported earlier, I went to Hawks vs Wizards NBE game last weekend and saw some "bizzarro" signals from the refs - a hip check signal, the hopping on one foot several times while hitting the thigh to show a trip, one that the official looked like a jumping banana (to show the coach the player was pushed while in the air - at least that was the play), and the old "two-handed shutting the door" signal to demonstrate a push to the players side. Unorthodox, but quite entertaining (at least to me)!
