Interesting sitch from another Intramural game (basically NCAA rules) involving 3 T's being given out.

3 whistle crew:
I'm L. Starts with B1 guarding A1 in backcourt T has foul goes to report and as he walks by B1 slams basketball against backcourt backboard right in front of T (he calls nothing and as he and C are alot closer than I am I don't want to jump their call so to speak, plus I may be missing something from L).
As we line up to shoot the bonus, B1 runs his trap to calling official and winds up with a T. B1 continues to run his mouth and grabs a 2nd T (in calling the first T partner pretty much prevokes the 2nd by getting in B1's face). At this point being most experienced of the crew I pull aside the T that started this all off (called original foul and both T's) and calm him under the guise of "discussing what has happened.
While all of this is going on, third official should be watching all the other players, but when I turn to announce that we will have 4 shots for the T's and go POI, I see A2 hanging on the rim (not just jumping and touching, but hanging like a monkey) so we have another T (which warrents ejection, but only 1 T in our league).
Lots of fun at this point, but I have one of my officials telling me that we should only shoot 2 shots and then POI. I corrected the whole thing and we shot 4 shots at A's goal then 2 at B's and then went back to the 1-1 shots. B goes crazy saying that should get the ball at half court and bonus shouldn't even be shot (got very heated almost another T).
Thankfully the supervisor of the entire IM program stepped in and calmed the situation. Magically his word is gold and mine is dogie poo. Amazing how a ref's word is typically final but gets poo poo attitude all the time.
