Baby Ruth Bandit Strikes Again
 
AD friend from next county travelled over to observe a set of games where I was assigned to officate today. For me, yet another game in the same gym as previously recounted "Not a Baby Ruth" incident.
"Guess what I had to do last night?", were the AD's first words to me in the hallway.
The offender's team had just played at his school yesterday--the same frosh team as had the #32, whose disgression was caught on tape several days ago where I'd "cleaned up".
He dropped another one last night, and the AD had to go onto the court to remove the deposit, only after a player had stepped on it and smeared it across the freethrow line.
Taking this seriously, which we are, we aren't sure whether this is a messy practical joke played by a rambuncious freshman (perhaps with the cajoling of the rest of his team), or whether this is a sad situation where a poor young man, probably embarassed to the max, needs to be counselled by his coach or his AD.
Happened twice within a week. Funny once...not so funny thereafter.

I doubt very much that it is a practical joke.

Unreal! I've never even heard of such a thing and you witness twice in a week? Smeared it on the court? Lucky you?! :eek:

Just so I'm perfectly clear, are we talking about a player doing #2 on a basketball court? During play?

Give this to the coach before the game!

If the coach is dense, tell him it isn't for him.

That's what happens when you play games in a di-arena. :D

OK, I admit it - that's the worst pun I've ever posted. :o

Taking Care of It
 
Went over to watch football at my AD buddy's today . . . he's gonna compose a discreet letter and send it to the AD of the offender's team. We hope that will take care of the problem. I'd much rather deal with the occasional Skittles.

Perhaps he should include a pkg. of adult diapers with the letter..:D
