How to this Ref gets his Revenge/ HS Rats

[NoFussRef]

Wreck HS boys rat-ball. Both teams horsing around the whole game. Had 3 Ts (1, inbounder throws ball in defenders face- they both laugh and was nothing flagrant but still whack. 2, player doing chin-ups on the net before and inbound. 3, delay of game- after plenty of warnings.)

At one point early in 1st, during free throws a team is throwing a football back and forth from bench to players at other end of court. (let this go, as even my partner and I got a good laugh, and they put it away before 2nd shot)

I tell my partner I'm only taking this as serious as they do, and we agree as long as this is still "fun" for both teams, and it stays that way, we will proceed.

REF's REVENGE=

In between 3rd and 4th qtrs, I go to the schools equipment room and find a basketball that is so flat it barely holds its shape. When I go to administer inbound to start the 4th, not even my partner knows what is about to happen.

I toss ball to inbounder A1, and begin my count, as he gives me the wtf look. I am already holding back uncontrollable laughs, his teammate starts yelling at him "he's counting, the refs counting!!!" So naturally he throws it in to A2, same wtf expression from him. There is barely enough air in this ball that he manages to get three dribbles out of it (each one getting lower to the floor) then passes it to A3 who shoots an air ball that just goes THUD.

After having MY rat-ball fun for the day, I blow it dead, tell my hysterically laughing partner the game-ball is hiding under bleachers behind him, and we proceed.

Thought you all would get a kick out of this one!
