Then there's THIS guy...
Had a V/JV doubleheader Tuesday. 4:00 start for the varsity and as much as we can get of a JV game before darkness (no lights). We step onto the field at 3:45 and the home team has just started infield practice. Then, visitors take their infield, we have the pregame, and we go. First pitch is somewhere between 4:10 and 4:15.
Varsity game cruises and we're done at exactly 6:00. As we're changing in the parking lot, a guy with home team apparel strolls up and says, "Hey. The teams are ready. You guys are taking a lot of time."
I replied, "We're going as fast as we can."
This guy says, "I don't think you are!"
"And you are...?" I asked.
"Xxxx Xxxx. Superintendent. I'm the administrator in charge."
"Sir, you need to go away," I said.
"What did you say to me?!?!"
"You need to go away."
First pitch of the JV game? 6:16 p.m. 16 minutes from the last out to the first pitch of the next game. That seems rather snappy, if you ask me.
Easily the worst I've ever been treated by a site administrator. Considering sending in a report to the state association. Thoughts?
