Just last Friday, the ball was being held for a measurement on the home team side line at the 34 yard line tick mark. The front stake on the other side of the field is also on the 34 yard line tick mark.

The home team coach asked if we thought it was a first down or not. Half in jest I tell the coach it depends how evenly they drew the hash marks. He said, "Well if it not a first down, that guy's getting fired."

It was a first down by about a half inch.
