Question for other Intramural Refs

On average, how many technical fouls do you call in a season/week/night/game?

At least 1-2 on most nights. That number goes up toward the end of the season and shoots up in the playoffs.

Some of my favorite technical foul memories:

-- Guy punting a ball so high it hit the ceiling

-- A player realizing his errant pass was going to be a backcourt violation and kicking the ball into the bleachers.

-- A player saying "That's chicken sh*t" and then claiming he actually said 'Chicken Strips'

My favorite quote from an intramural athlete participant comes from this dude who got rejected on a lay-up:

"That's a foul ref, he hit me on the thumb!"
