(In the actual game, which was GJV, A1 was about 4'6", B1 was about 5'2", and B2 was about 5'10". The referee told A1 to jump against B1 so it wouldn't be completely absurd because of the difference in height.)
I prefer the scizzors, rock, paper method.. Odd person out which could make it interesting to see B1 & B2 jump with Team A getting control!
Actually, if it was unclear as to whether it was B1 or B2 that gained the inital tie with A1, then the judgement call to go with B1 was good, IMO... Of course if B2 was the clear winner, then, as absurd as it may be, it going to be A1 & B2..
Then again, drawing straws wouldn't be a bad way to go either!
