I worked a game with a partner with whom during our pregame "small talk" was just all too proud to "bragg to me that he was retired after 40 yrs at the motor plant [I chagrin at hearing about your retirement cause I am working my as* off every day but I digress]any way dude told me he was 82 yrs old and had been reffing for 60 yrs. He did move in a shall I say more slower gated manner and his mechanics on his calls at times appeared to me as 'smooth' slow-motion-like" but it got the point across--he shared with me some his wisdom [and humor] on "gray/subjective" aspects officiating ----good partner for real though.
