Our area has adopted, "Pull three people from any area for any given night" philosophy, what are the odds of some refs having flags/no flags, pullover/zip up jacket, different shoes, etc. I felt a bit weird the other night, when my jacket failed to match my two partners.
I have a pair of glasses and sports goggles (in the same prescription as the glasses). Normally, I change to the goggles when I arrive on site and keep the glasses packed in the side pocket of my bad in a hard-shell protective case.

This weekend, however, I was halfway through my second game before I realized I was wearing my glasses instead of my goggles. At that point, I didn't bother changing.
