Forgot pants!

[blindzebra1]

A trick I use during the season (basketball) is, I pack a extra bag ,small one, with one of each item I need for my next game,shoes, socks, pants, under shirt & shorts,b&w shirt, whistle,lanyard.& shower gear. The trick is the bag Never,ever leaves the car,it`s a emergency back-up,just for situations like leaving pants or shoes a home.

P.S. When packing your gear for your game, start at you feet,and work your way up,ie.shoes socks, pants etc,etc.

I'm meticulous when packing, so I've never forgotten equipment, but I have been in a hurry and not packed towels and a clean pair of underwear. Minor issues.

When football season started this year, I couldn't find my watch. My wife had done some "cleaning" and swore she didn't see it. So, I worked a couple of early games and all scrimmages without it, but told her to go get me a new one as I missed it greatly on the field. She looked again in all the stuff and found my original one -- after swearing on umpteen bibles she never came across it.

However, I can't get too mad at her. I forgot my down indicator for a jr. high game a couple of years ago (going to the game dressed) and she brought it out to me.

I would advise a checklist. I laminated a card with high school on one side and college on the other (different shoes and jackets). Now, my roller bag is big enough to keep everything in there but I still have a master list.
