Many years ago I had an MS kids rec game (during a tournament) and one of the kids was warming up prior to the game while wearing #8 on his jersey. I went over to the coach to explain things to him and he asked me that if the kid put his jersey on "sideways" so the number would then be "infinity", would that be OK? It was obvious he was just trying to be funny so I told him it would be fine because "infinity" was on the acceptable number list, along with pi. He looked at me and said, "Are you serious?" We both just laughed.
BTW he found a "legal" jersey for the kid which was a good thing because that kid scored over 20 points.
