I was talking with Dave this afternoon about some upcoming assignments and he reminded me about a conversation we had with some other refs about two years ago. Just for fun, I thought I'd post it again for the newbies.
Two crews had forfeits one Saturday during a tournament so we were sitting around, killing time until our next game. We decided to try and "top" one another and come up with what would be the strangest game situation. Here was the winner (actually, I forgot who said this, but it wasn't either Dave or me).
You are officiating a game on a cruise ship. A1 inbounds to A2 in their backcourt. Just as he does, the ship crosses the international dateline and it is now yesterday. Does A2 now get 23 hours, 59 minutes and 10 seconds to get the ball across the division line?
Obviously, it's a joke (just in case you have the brains of a coach), but it did win the prize (an autographed dartboard of Bobby Knight).
