Around here, most schools do a little "senior night" presentation to their senior athletes at their last home game. Usually it's pretty quick, but sometimes it can drag on for up to 15 minutes if they have a lot of seniors. It's never been an issue until last year. After sitting their for 15 minutes, the visiting coach asked if his team could have a 5-minute warm-up period before we started the game since his team had been sitting for 15 minutes. We granted it (to both teams) and then the home coach started grousing saying that the visiting coach was being "rude." We ended up starting the game about 20 minutes past scheduled starting time.
Anyone encounter that before or have ideas how to handle it? Thanks in advance, Z |

I agree. I think you did the right thing. My wish is that local or state associations would tell the ADs to do these types of ceremonies (including normal intros and national anthem) so that they end before game time. Every school does it, and for the last week and a half of the season, every game you go to starts late. It's a pain in the neck.
