I once had a game in which the colors worn by the two teams were puce and chartreuse!

It's not the end of the world, but your partners never once asked you or nudged you about this? (We look good as a team, we look less-than-good as a team ...)

Not a big deal, but I once called a team "Black" when they were actually dark blue, very dark blue. I didn't notice it until the first time I had a designated spot throwin and got a good look at the jersey. This was after a few "Black" calls from me. It took me a few minutes to get used to calling "Blue" the rest of the game. I mentioned it to my partner during the first timeout and he said he was wondering what the hell I was doing.
