Duplicate numbers

[Mark Dexter]

I think first you need to play a round of "To Tell the Truth" to figure out who committed the fouls.

As to the scorekeeper, don't blame him/her - blame the coach who can't keep track of numbers. Team's first boys JV game of the year (away). My school's JV team has the hand-me-downs from V and often several repeating #'s. I told the coach this well before the game, but he still didn't change it!!! Luckily, the second player (I think the # was 2) didn't go in at all until the first #2 fouled out - so we just let him play in that jersey.

Of course, opposing fans wanted a 'T' and accused us of cheating.

Best "call" all night (this was during varsity) was when some obnoxious man behind the table (I believe he was the AD) kept shouting "CHEATERS!!" for every violation - even the one the officials called!! (Ex: "TWEET" - Carry - "Cheaters, Cheaters, CHEEEEEEEATERRRRRRRSSSSSSS!!!!!) I felt like turning around and giving him one of those glued up whistles.
