HS varsity summer league game Tuesday - running 10 minute quarters. With about 3 minutes to go in the 1st half, the opponent had 8 fouls, we had 0 (zero!). I jokingly told the guy next to me, our goal should be to have the other team in the double bonus, and us with no fouls, at the end of the half. With a minute to go, the opponent got their 10th foul. We still had zero. I hollered - "No fouls, no fouls". Sure enough, within 15 seconds, one of our players committed not one, but two fouls. Some people really know how to spoil a good time. I can only imagine the comments the other coach was making.

And, to the point of no one fouling out, one of the opponents must've had at least 10 fouls by the end of the game. In one series, he fouled a player who was shooting, then fouled another player on the free throw attempt. It was ridiculous.
