Anal Pivot question

[archer]

This really happened the other night. Was doing a Boys Varisty game. Mid way thru 2nd quarter. Kid grabs rebound and then falls to floor landing on his rear. I come up with the walk signal. While kid is getting up he ask me why I called a walk????? I tell him he b/c you fell to floor with ball. He then tells me that he didnt walk b/c he transferred his pivot to his butt! I said " you did what"! I show big grin and administer throw in to other team. While going up sideline to get in trail which happens to be where his coaches box is. I begin officiating. His coach is standing beside me and tells me I missed the walk call. I ask him why he thinks that.... He tells me the exact same thing his kid said. I look at him with a blank look on my face and say.... Oh your talking about the new anal pivot rule? He has big beaming smile on his face b/c he thinks he has one up'd the ref.... Again the blank look on my face I say..... "Never heard of it" and then smile and go down to be new lead. When I am back at T, I tell coach that there is no such rule and that if he would like I would show him the rule book that I am assuming he has never seen. He then tells me that he is positive that I missed it b/c another ref from another association told him that you can transfer your pivot to your butt. I shake my head and smile at him and finish the game..... If another official wasnt standing within ear shot of this I am sure that no one would have beleived me when I passed on this story to the guys I work with. So fellow officials........ You better start familiarizing yourself with this new rule..... Remember its the Anal pivot and we have been missing this call for years now and the coaches are wanting us to start getting it right.
