Where's Waldo ...
If one doesn't catch the first foul, one might end up calling a double foul.

Early IAABO member returns are all over the map with all four answers given.

Actually took me a few times through the video to find any foul.

Gotta stop ball watching.

I have one foul on this play and it is #24 for grabbing the arm of the opponent and acting like he got pushed. That is a "Fool the referee" play.

Peace

Agree. 24 was the only one fouling.

If only the question had given you the number(s) to watch....

On *this* play -- I have no foul because the ball went OOB, so there was no advantage gained.

If the ball had remained live, I have a foul on white for pulling the arm.

First watched the video without a "cheat sheet".

I like Bob's answer (as usual)...step in and tell them both to knock it off and play on.

13% is nothing to sneeze at, and should probably not be discounted, overlooked, or ignored.
