So, we're on the field talking with coaches, getting captains, etc, for a youth ball championship game when the HL comes up and says that he doesn't have a set of chains. He didn't say he lacked a "chain crew", but actually was without the "chains".
Well, everyone looked all around, but since they decided to move the game to a high school field for the Championship, no one remembered to bring the chains.
Well, being the resourceful R that I am (and having an impending dinner engagement that evening), we decided to go on with the show. We recruited members of the chain gang to stand as the front and back posts, and to have the 3rd member act as the box, holding up his fingers for the down!
The good news is that we didn't even need a clip. And, don't even ask about measurements....
