From what I've seen here, it's pretty much left up to the official's discretion. Some get injured, some get ticked off based on the assignments they begin to receive, a few just figure out they've done it long enough.
2012 was my 14th varsity season, 19th overall. I would like to achieve 25 years as a varsity official but that will put me at age 61. My main WH is 68. Two years ago he detached a quad at U in a college game and is due for a hip replacement this spring. I hope I can hold up as long but who knows?
The one thing I have noticed is some guys will ramble on about it for two or three years before they pull the trigger.
