Three, or four, times in thirty-two years, with those old fashioned mechanical scoreboards. In all cases I had to ask the timekeeper if the "automatic horn" was on, or off. In same cases it would be off, he would turn it on, the horn would sound, and the period would be over. In other cases, where the "automatic horn" would be off, he would turn it on, and the horn wouldn't sound, leaving us to play a little bit more to end the period.
Can this happen with the new fangled digital scoreboards?
