Our state mandates a 20-minute halftime, although it can be changed by mutual agreement of both coaches before the game begins.
If bands are not off the field by 20:00, the home team is penalized, even if the visitors went over their alloted time.
Personally, I have turned my back so as not to have to enforce this. All of our teams do their pre-half stretching/warmups in their respective end zones.
