Did an exhibition game last week, both my partner and I were called in at the last minute, after an assigning mixup.

Anyway, halfway through the game, one of the players comes to me and says "your partner's been drinking, I can smell it". I shrugged and said I hadn't noticed anything.

Next timeout, I talked to him and sure enough, his breath smelled very strongly of booze. I said nothing...but kept an eye out. He didn't appear drunk, he was running fine, and he called a good game.

No other players complained and at no point did my partner appear to be the least bit out of control. I do not think he was drunk. Still, it kind of looks bad, I guess.

My instinct is to not to say anything to anyone. If the player's really that ticked, I suppose my assignor will hear about it eventually. Remember, we got called in at the last minute: I was watching the tube, he was apparently in the middle of dinner. My guess is a glass of wine/beer or two with his meal.

What would you do?
